ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Mesenchymal tumours of the bladder are benign but rare occurrences and represent approximately 1% of all bladder tumours. CASE REPORT We report a case of a large bladder leiomyoma in an asymptomatic patient. A large pelvic mass was discovered incidentally on the bedside ultrasound scan during a review at the gynecology clinic. Intra-operatively, no mass was seen in the pelvis, and cystoscopy demonstrated an intravesical mass. It was further evaluated with cystoscopy. MR imaging demonstrated typical features of a bladder leiomyoma. Subsequently, the patient underwent partial cystectomy, and the mass was removed, which was histologically proven leiomyoma.CONCLUSION:
Awareness of this rare clinical entity and identification of its typical radiological features on MR imaging can aid with accurate diagnosis and preclude unnecessary radical surgery.Mots clés
