“…CT reports of bladder leiomyosarcoma describe an intraluminal heterogeneous mass 17,20,23 . With MR, bladder leiomyoma has a heterogeneous signal from low‐to‐intermediate intensity on T1‐weighted sequences and intermediate to high signal intensity with foci of low signal intensity on T2‐weighted sequences 19,24,25 . A published description of the MR characteristics of bladder leiomyosarcoma was not found.…”

“…Le scanner n'apporte pas plus d'information que l'écho-graphie et montre une masse homogène, de densité tissulaire, qui prend faiblement le contraste après injection 3 . L'IRM est une technique plus informative mais rarement rapportée dans cette pathologie 12 . Les plans sagittal et frontal permettent une meilleure analyse des rapports de la masse avec la vessie 3 .…”

“…Le diagnostic différentiel le plus difficile est celui du léio-myosarcome vésical [7][8][9][10][11][12] . Même avec les données de l'IRM, les signes différentiels entre une tumeur conjonctive bénigne ou maligne ne sont pas toujours évidents [7][8][9][10][11][12] . En faveur du léiomyosarcome, il faut retenir des contours très irréguliers et un contenu plus hétérogène que le léiomyome vésical 7 .…”
