Vaginal inclusion cysts can appear as small bumps and can develop during childbirth, or after surgery. [8] A squamous inclusion cyst can rarely be found in a newborn. [ 7 ] Other cysts can be Bartholin's cysts , Gartner's duct cysts , mucous inclusions , epithelial inclusion cysts , embryonic cysts and urothelial cysts .
There is a small association between Gartner's duct cysts and metanephric urinary anomalies, such as ectopic ureter and ipsilateral renal hypoplasia. [5] Symptoms of a Gartner's duct cyst include: infections, bladder dysfunction, abdominal pain, vaginal discharge, and urinary incontinence. [6] The size of the cyst is usually less than 2 cm.
Some vaginal cysts are epidermoid cysts. [3] Although they are not malignant, there are rare cases of malignant tumors arising from an epidermoid cyst. [4] Epidermal inclusion cysts account for approximately 85–95% of all excised cysts; malignant transformation is exceedingly rare.

Treatment of a Bartholin’s cyst involves incision and drainage, and "if the cyst is large or if it recurs, a larger incision is made involving suturing in a procedure called marsupialization ...
A nabothian cyst (or nabothian follicle) [1] is a mucus-filled cyst on the surface of the cervix. They are most often caused when stratified squamous epithelium of the ectocervix (portion nearest to the vagina) grows over the simple columnar epithelium of the endocervix (portion nearest to the uterus). This tissue growth can block the cervical ...
