          Paraurethral Skene's duct cyst in a newborn

          Paraurethral or Skene's duct cysts are rare causes of interlabial masses in neonates. The diagnosis of Skene's duct cysts in the neonatal period is based on its location, in relation to the urethra, and the demonstration of transitional epithelium in the cyst wall. The distinguishing features of paraurethral cysts are the displacement of urethral meatus by the mass and a cyst containing milky fluid. Thus, we report a case of a Skene's duct cyst in a newborn which was treated by incision and drainage.

            Lesions of Skene glands and periurethral region: a review.

            The periurethral (Skene) glands may become involved by a variety of conditions. Mass-like lesions need to be distinguished from other lesions arising from the anterior vagina. Familiarity with these lesions will be helpful if a patient with a lesion of the Skene glands or periurethral region is encountered.
