One patient is presented with discussion of the embryology of the lower genitourinary in the female subject. Important differential diagnostic considerations in infants and adults are ectopic ureterocele, urethral diverticula, cystocele and paraurethral tumors. IVP, VCUG, cystourethroscopy are necessary to differentiate these lesions. We have treated a case of paraurethral cyst with complete excision.
