Labial fusion: A rare cause of obstructive lower urinary tract symptoms in old age females

Lower urinary tract symptoms in females can be due to various factors. Most of the time it is due to simple urinary tract infection and lower urinary tract pathology such as urethral stricture, meatal stenosis, bladder stones, underactive detrusor, and primary bladder neck obstruction. Commonly found neurologic causes among females are detrusor–external sphincter dyssynergia, associated with various brain and spine diseases and diabetic neuropathy. Labial fusion is a rare cause of female voiding difficulty. We herein present two elderly postmenopausal diabetic female patients who had nearly total urethral occlusion due to labial fusion. After thorough history taking and local genitourinary examination, the patients were operated. Treatment included surgical correction followed by the local application of 1% estrogen ointment. Both patients were symptom-free after the procedure. Thus, with a correct diagnosis followed by simple operative procedure, we can treat such patients successfully.
