Popis: Genitourinary prolapse in newborn females as an introital mass is an uncommon entity. The usual causative mechanisms are poor pelvic innervation, damage or pressure on pelvic musculature and ligaments etc. Different methods of reduction as treatment were proposed in the past. Apart from uncommon occurrence of genitourinary prolapse in newborns, its association with anorectal malformation is not reported in English literature after searching on PubMed and Google Scholar. We report three cases of genitourinary prolapse with anorectal malformation in newborn females where decompressing colostomy was curative for the condition reflecting increased intra-abdominal pressure as causative mechanism.
