Parameatal urethral cyst in a 9-year-old boy.

Parameatal urethral cyst (PUC) is a comparatively unusual pathology in children. Since its first report, approximately 100 cases have been reported in the literature, mostly in the Japanese population. We report such a case in a 9-year old boy who presented with urine stream distortion, successfully managed by complete excision of the cyst, with total removal of the epithelium, which is the treatment of choice to prevent recurrence.
