Abstract

Urethral duplication is a rare urogenital anomaly, especially in females. We present the case of a preterm female with various congenital anomalies, hydrocolpos, and a persistent interlabial cyst, later found to be secondary to urethral duplication. At age 2, cystoscopy and VCUG confirmed a duplicated urethral tract. Surgical resection of the accessory urethra and genitoplasty were performed successfully. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, with excellent cosmetic and functional outcomes at follow-up. This case highlights urethral duplication as a rare but possible differential diagnosis for interlabial cystic lesions in females, particularly when associated with fluctuating size and underlying urogenital anomalies.

一个女孩的模仿唇间囊肿的尿道复制:一个诊断挑战。
尿道重复是一种罕见的泌尿生殖异常,尤其在女性中。我们提出的情况下,早产女性与各种先天性异常,阴唇积水和持续唇间囊肿,后来发现继发于尿道重复。两岁时,膀胱镜检查和VCUG检查证实有重复尿道。手术切除副尿道及生殖器成形术成功。术后恢复顺利,随访时具有良好的美容和功能结果。本病例强调了女性唇间囊性病变中尿道重复是一种罕见但可能的鉴别诊断,特别是当大小波动和潜在的泌尿生殖器异常时。
