Abstract

Background & aim: Female urethral involvement is rare in Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections despite it being the most common sexually transmitted disease globally.This case report aimed to present two unusual cases of female urethral HPV infection, which caused lower urinary tract symptoms.
Case report: A 45-year-old single woman was referred complaining of mass protrusion from the urethral meatus, incomplete voiding, and dysuria 3 months ago. Physical examination revealed a papillary pink mass about 0.5×1 cm in diameter around the external urethral meatus. A surgical excision was performed. Pathological evaluation revealed condyloma acuminatum. The next case was a 41-year-old married woman referred to the clinic with a complaint of dysuria. Physical examination revealed a purple urethral mass about 0.5×0.5 cm in size. A surgical excision was performed, and Histopathological evaluation showed condyloma acuminatum. After two months of follow-up, they had no recurrent lesions or symptoms.
Conclusion: Female urethral condyloma may cause lower urinary tract symptoms and could be managed successfully by surgical excision.
