dc.description.abstract Microperforate hymen is a rare condition characterized by a small pinpoint opening in the hymen. Compared to imperforate hymen, girls born with microperforate hymen are prone to develop pyocolpos due to the propensity for bacteria to ascend via the opening and colonize secretions entrapped in the vagina. We are reporting the case of a 3 year old girl who presented with purulent vaginal discharge and dysuria and was found to have a microperforate hymen and pyocolpos, a rare condition defined by the accumulation of pus in the vagina. en_US
