The authors report their experience on transvaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of urethral diverticula, using a high frequency linear probe, that is generally employed for transrectal prostate sonography. This non invasive method seems to be more reliable than voiding cystourethrography. This investigation may be recommended in women who have symptoms of lower urinary tract infection, urethral pain, dyspareunia, palpable mass of the anterior vaginal wall.

Abstract
The authors report their experience on transvaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of urethral diverticula, using a high frequency linear probe, that is generally employed for transrectal prostate sonography. This non invasive method seems to be more reliable than voiding cystourethrography. This investigation may be recommended in women who have symptoms of lower urinary tract infection, urethral pain, dyspareunia, palpable mass of the anterior vaginal wall.
