Ans: C. Gartner’s cyst
Gartner’s cysts, sometimes incorrectly referred to as vaginal inclusion cysts, are the most common benign cystic lesions of the vagina.
They represent embryological remnants of the caudal end of the mesonephric( Wolffian) duct.
Gartner’s ducts are found in about 25% of adult women. Almost one percent of these ducts evolve into Gartner’s duct cyst.
