A rare case of urocolpos

Urocolpos (uro-urine, Colpos-vagina) is distension of the vagina due to the accumulation of urine; it is a rare occurrence.it can be seen from young pre-pubertal girls to post-menopausal women. Labia minora adhesions can be partial or complete.in pre-pubertal girls the fusion caused due to hypoestrogenic state may be asymptomatic and present only as urinary retention. It can be mistaken for haematocoplos, which should be ruled out. We present a case report of a young female patient who presented with complete labial fusion with urocolpos with urinary incontinence. She was surgically treated and is being followed up with no recurrence.
