On examination it was a soft, non–tender, fluctuant 3cms diameter swelling, which is reducible on supine head low position, expansile cough impulse was noted. Swelling was palpable through the right wall of vagina. Wide bore needle aspiration was done to rule out cystic nature. Plain Computerized Tomography revealed a patent processes vaginalis.
