[A case report of leiomyoma of the urinary bladder]

Abstract

A 69-year-old male patient developed gross hematuria. Cystoscopy revealed a very small mass growing from the dome. The patient underwent transurethral resection of the mass under epidural anesthesia. Pathological examination of the resected specimen revealed submucosal leiomyoma of the bladder. The pathology, clinical manifestations, radiological and cystoscopic findings, treatment and prognosis of vesical leiomyoma are reviewed.
