Abstract

Representing 0.43% of all urinary bladder neoplasms, leiomyomas are rare mesenchymal tumours with a benign pathophysiology. There have only been approximately 250 cases published on this subject, necessitating further inquiry into this disease and effective management protocols. Treatment options may include a broad spectrum of surgical interventions, from minimally invasive resection to radical cystectomy, depending on the location, size and symptoms associated with the tumour. To date, few cases of leiomyoma have resulted in recurrence after removal, and zero have reported malignant transformation. Described here in detail is a woman in her early 40s who presented with a history of chronic pelvic pain and irregular vaginal bleeding. The urology team completed further evaluation after imaging discovered a concerning bladder lesion. Eventually, she underwent transurethral resection, with the subsequent pathology revealing a rare diagnosis of leiomyoma in the urinary bladder.
