Abstract

Acute urinary retention due to urethral hemangioma in women is a rare case. Common clinical findings of hemangiomas include lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), dysuria, hematuria, urethrorrhagia, and urethral mass. A 78-year-old woman with urinary retention due to thrombotic cavernous urethral hemangioma. On physical examination, a red-blue urethral mass with a smooth surface of 4x3.5x3 cm covering the urethral mouth to the vulva was found. The urethrocystoscopy showed the base of the tumor on the ventral part of the distal urethra. Folley catheter insertion and mass excision were performed. The histopathological diagnosis reveals cavernous hemangioma with thrombus. The patient's postoperative follow-up indicates no complications and recurrences.
