Abstract
Paraurethral cysts in the female neonates are uncommon lesions. A 7-day-old and a 13-day-old female neonates were found to have a 2 cm and a 1.5 cm cystic mass respectively at the introitus and inferior to the urethral orifice. Simple marsupialization were done. There have been no signs of recurrence. The cyst wall was lined with stratified squamous epithelium. Many congenital cysts of the different origin at the external genitalia have been reported in newborns and infants. The histologic findings of the cyst walls are correlated with, and furthermore identify their embryologic origin. Therefore, histologic examination is important.
