Case presentation
We report on a 7-day-old female newborn at
term, with no associated pathology, in
whom a smooth pinkish formation was observed
in the dorsal part of the hymen, protruding
between the labia minora [Fig. 1].
Physical examination suggested a hymenal
tag, a polypoid hymenal lesion secondary
to maternal estrogen exposure that tends
to resolve spontaneously in the first months
of life, and thus excluded the initial need for
complementary tests. As expected, the excrescence
progressively disappeared during
the first months of life [Fig. 2].
