Leiomioma de vejiga: Análisis de agregación de 90 casos

Abstract: RESUMEN LEIOMIOMA DE VEJIGA. ANÁLISIS DE AGREGACIÓN DE 90 CASOS INTRODUCCIÓN:Los leiomiomas de vejiga (LV) son tumores raros. La mayoría de las publicaciones relativas a estos tumores describen casos aislados, no permitiendo evaluar estrategias diagnósticas y terapéuticas.MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Realizamos un análisis de agregación de 90 casos de LV descritos en la literatura internacional.RESULTADOS: La edad media al diagnóstico fue de 45,3 años (19-85 años), 68 (75,6%) eran mujeres. Los síntomas más frecuentes er… Show more

“…Recently, laparoscopic partial cystectomy and robot-assisted partial cystectomy excision have been successfully applied for bladder leiomyoma treatment [5,21,22]. Silva-Ramos et al [23] performed a pooled analysis of 90 leiomyoma cases. Laparotomy was performed in 56 patients (62.2%), with enucleation in 29 (32.2%), partial cystectomy in 25 (27.8%) and cystectomy in 2 (2.2%).…”

“…Leiomyomas can remain asymptomatic for many years, reaching considerable size, unless they affect the normal function of the lower urinary tract [9]. Endoluminal tumors are symptomatic, presenting with urinary tract infections, hematuria, irritative symptoms (especially at the bladder neck), or obstructive symptoms, causing even acute bladder outlet obstruction secondary to a ISSN 1944-5792 (print), ISSN 1944-5784 (online) valve effect [5,6,9,10], as in our case. Intramural and subserosal tumors are, in general, asymptomatic and the diagnosis is incidental.…”

“…Nevertheless, imaging tests add important data that suggest the benign nature of these tumors, like the presence of a well-circumscribed lesion with homogeneous density, poor enhancement with contrast media, and normal, perivesical fat. There is no test that allows us to differentiate a leiomyoma from leiomyosarcoma; therefore, pathologic diagnosis is mandatory [5]. Leiomyomas are firm and rubbery in consistency, appear as whitish-gray, round to ovoid nodules with a spiral appearance of smooth-muscle fibers, and eosinophilic cytoplasm with less than 2 mitotic figures per high-power field.…”
