Abstract

Caruncles are quite rare in young females especially locations other than the lower lip of the urethra. Urethral caruncle causing a divorce has not been published before. A 23-year-old woman presented with a mass feeling at her urethral meatus. Complaints of dysuria, itching, dyspareunia and bloody discharge developed in the previous year. Although she took many medications, the mass did not become smaller. The patient divorced on request of her husband because of dyspareunia and difficulty in sexual activity. On physical examination there was a lump of about 5 x 5 cm in diameter and the lesion was excised totally. Urethral caruncles both in young age groups and in unusual locations are quite rare. We report a huge urethral caruncle causing divorce, which has not been published until now in the literature.
