Abstract
Gartner''s duct cysts and unilateral hematocolpos are unusual conditions presenting as a paravaginal cystic mass. They are frequently mismanaged. The value of laparoscopy was questioned; primary vaginal drainage may be contraindicated. Laparotomy was performed invariably. Laparoscopy and primary vaginal drainage is a safe and successful method of treatment. Three recent cases are reported together with an earlier case.
