Popis: Background Para -urethral cysts are rare benign lesions, especially in newborns. They are often asymptomatic but can be present with obstructive sequels. Cases We present the cases of 3 female newborn infants who were found to have a para-urethral cyst at birth with a characteristic finding of a displaced urethral opening. They were treated with the least invasive technique with total resolution on follow-up and good parental prospective. Summary and Conclusion Para-urethral cysts are sparsely reported and diagnosis is based on physical examination, although imaging studies sometimes are needed. They are expected to resolve spontaneously; therefore, management aims to prevent obstructive consequences. However, treatment can be conservative or surgical according to the patient presentation. Further reports of this rare disease will improve management planning and outcomes.
