We appreciate Dr Porges's suggestion of a possible diagnosis of polyp for the case published in September. In considering a differential diagnosis of interlabial mass during neonatal period, the partial list includes polyps, urethral prolapse, paraurethral cyst, and rhabdomyosarcoma (Botryoid sarcoma). However, the clinical findings in our case were relatively clear, which unfortunately was not revealed clearly in the published photograph. The photograph showed the circumferential prolapse of vaginal wall through the introitus and was not the cervix.
