Benign fibroepithelial polyp of prostatic urethra is a rare congenital lesion. It is usually diagnosed in the pediatric population with various urinary symptoms and its etiology is controversial. Presenting symptoms are intermittent urinary retention, inadequate bladder emptying, hematuria, and urinary tract infection and rarely may it be asymptomatic. The diagnosis is usually made by ultrasonography, voiding cystourethrography, and urethrocystoscopy. In this case; 9 years old patient who admitted with intermittent obstructive urinary tract symptoms and then diagnosed posterior urethral fibroepithelial polyp, presented with literature. A mass extending from prostatic urethra to bladder neck and into bladder was detected by cystoscopy. The mass was resected with a transurethral intervention. Pathological assessment came as fibroepithelial polyp. The patient has not voiding symptoms at control examination.
