Clitoridal inclusion cyst is a common complication of childhood female genital mutilation (FGM) wrong referred to as female circumcision which is still a predominant practice in Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. Inclusion cyst of the clitoris can present as infants; during childhood or later in life as a complication of FGM. We present a case of a 7-year-old girl with Clitoridal inclusion cyst. She had FGM during infancy in a nursing home in Nigeria. She had enucleation of the cyst with re-fashioning of the external genitalia.
