2019, Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case ReportsCitation Excerpt :However this cannot explain the cause of UP in our patient as she was of reproductive age (23 years), had a normal hormonal profile, and no evidence of vaginal atrophy. That the onset of symptoms started when the patient was digging, a strenuous activity associated with episodic increases in intra-abdominal pressure, could support the popular theory that the problem arises as a consequence of poor attachments between the two layers of smooth muscle surrounding the urethra, combined with episodic increases in intra-abdominal pressure [1,5–7]. There is divided opinion between management of Urethral Prolapse; some surgeons preferring conservative/medical management, while others prefer, surgical reduction with or without surgical excision of the prolapsed urethral mucosa [1,8–10].

2017, Arab Journal of UrologyCitation Excerpt :Where ‘mild’ symptoms translate as a smaller size of lump protruding from the urethra and less bleeding, whilst ‘severe’ tends to be related to bigger size, severer genital haemorrhage, and the prolapse with an appearance suggestive of vascular compromise (e.g. dusky or blueish discolouration of the mucosa). However, the effectiveness of conservative treatment is limited with high recurrence rates [1,4]. Surgical resection has been recommended as an effective primary treatment strategy [3,12,15].
