An Elongated Endometrial Polyp Prolapsing Through the Introitus in a Virgin.

The objective of the study is to report on the unusual case of an elongated endometrial polyp prolapsing through the introitus. A nulliparous 38-year-old woman presented to the gynecology department with an abnormal mass prolapsing at the vulva area without any abnormal uterine bleeding. Because she had no history of having engaged in sexual intercourse, a pelvic examination was not performed. Ultrasonography revealed an intrauterine hyperechoic lesion 1.5 cm × 0.8 cm in diameter suspected to be endometrial polyp. A hysteroscopy revealed an elongated endometrial polyp 12 cm × 0.5 cm in length, which originated from the midanterior corpus and extended out of the cervix and introitus. Then, the base of the polyp was cut and removed. The pathological report was consistent with an endometrial polyp. This was an unusual case of an elongated endometrial polyp prolapsing through the introitus in a nulliparous woman. Hysteroscopy is the best tool for diagnosis and management in this case.
