Urethral bulking agent found in a urethral caruncle which did not respond to topical oestrogens: A case report

摘要

Urethral caruncles are lesions occurring at the urethral orifice, around the posterior lip of the urethra. They are the most common benign growth of the female urethra. They are often asymptomatic and found incidentally on clinical examination. When symptomatic they commonly present with bleeding. Treatment includes vaginal oestrogens or, failing that, surgical excision. We present an unusual finding after excision of a urethral caruncle.
