Abstract

Skene's gland cysts are rare and the cause of adult-onset is still unclear. We report the case of a 34-year-old woman developing a Skene's gland cyst following a history of various gynecological treatment interventions. She finally underwent surgical excision of the cyst and no recurrence has been observed 1 year after the surgery.
