Varied Presentation of Paraurethral Cyst in Two Adult Female Patients and its Management: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Abstract

Paraurethral gland or Skene’s gland was first described by Alexander Skene, a Scottish gynecologist in 1880, which are the largest of the female urethral glands and located at the bottom of distal urethra. Paraurethral cysts may be very uncommon entity and rarely encountered in urogynecologic practice. Therefore, no consensus on the management of paraurethral cyst could be reached. These cysts arise from paraurethral glands or Skene’s gland. Patients with paraurethral cysts present with a variety of symptoms. We report two female patients of paraurethral cyst and its management.
