Urethral prolapse--a case report.
Urethral prolapse is an uncommon anomaly that involves primarily the distal female urethra. It occurs most commonly in black girls and in post-menopausal white patients. We report a case of urethral prolapse in an 8-year-old girl. She was treated by total excision of prolapsed mucosa. Postoperative course was smooth. No urinary incontinence or recurrence was found.
