ABSTRACT
Cysts of Skene glands constitute an unfrequented entity, being reported in less than 50 cases in the literature. They frequently happen unobserved, unless they infect or obstruct, originating Skenitis. The following case as presented with the objective to show the importance of ultrasounds in inter labial masses of the newborn girl because it allows to determine ultrasonography characteristics in cystic and solid masses and carry out an adequate surgical treatment. The clinical case corresponds to a female newborn that in the moment when she was born, a whitish mass was detected with some visible inter labial vessels, that protruded through the vaginal introitus. An ultrasound was performed, and the presence of a cystic image was verified. She was operated and the histologic diagnosis was an abscessed cyst of the Skene gland. To conclude it can be said that the performance of an ultrasound in interlabial masses of newborns is useful to determine the type of treatment.
