Urethral caruncle is a rare condition primarily affecting elderly. Sometimes, it resembles urethral prolapse or malignancies. It can even cause outflow obstruction or urinary retention. A case of 83-years-old woman with urinary retention since a week prior was presented. Physical examination revealed a bulging mass originating from posterior lip of external urethral meatus. Due to the size, it caused outflow obstruction. The whole mass was excised. Histology examination reported the mass as urethral caruncle. Urethral caruncle is a common problem in elderly which rarely cause outflow obstruction. A thorough examination is required to distinguish it from malignancies and other disorders. © 2021
