Urethral prolapse is a very rare disease, which is most often found in prepubescent girls. It occurs in about one over 5000 girls in the context of a chronic cough or any situation that increases abdominal pressure. It is often associated with diagnostic confusion, which delays management. We report the case of a 6-year-old child brought in urgently by her parents for a minimal genital hemorrhage and presence of a mass protruding from the vulva. In the hypothesis of a urethral prolapse, a medical treatment (conservative) was prescribed. After two weeks, the mass decreased significantly in volume and disappeared completely after 2 months.
