Abstract
Pyocolpos is a rare complication of hydrocolpos. Hydrocolpos usually presents during adolescence and is associated with an imperforate hymen. The following is a case of a 3-month-old girl with pyocolpos. Her history was significant for a urinary tract infection (UTI) at 7 weeks of age. The authors believe that her UTI was caused by urinary retention secondary to hydrocolpos. A complete evaluation may have prevented the complication of pyocolpos.Entities:
