“…Therefore, it can arise in any organ that contains this tissue. The most common localizations are the skin, womb, retroperitoneum, and genitourinary and gastrointestinal tracts [5,7,9]. In the genitourinary tract, it is most frequent in the kidney and bladder, especially at the trigone and bladder neck [7,9,10].…”

In the genitourinary tract, it is most frequent in the kidney and bladder, especially at the trigone and bladder neck [7,9,10]. A review by Goluboff et al of 37 cases in the English literature showed that the mean patient age was 44 years and that 76% of patients were women [6].…”

“…The genesis of this lesion remains a mystery; however, there are multiple theories that try to explain this question [7]: 1) Blum's irritative-inflammatory theory, which suggests the presence of chronic inflammatory stimuli over the smooth muscle, 2) Piegel's disontogenic theory, which suggests its origin comes from embryogenic rests of Müller and Wolffian ducts, 3) vascularirritative theory, and 4) Lips-Chutz's theory, which suggests its origin is secondary to an endocrine disorder, with estrogen and progesterone having a primary role. This theory supports peak incidence in females when fertile, and the presence of steroidal ovarian receptors on the tumor [8].…”

“…Prognosis is good and recurrence is rare if the resection is adequate; therefore, it seems unnecessary to establish follow-up protocols. However, Lake, in 1981, described what is, to date, the only case of a leiomyoma with malignant degeneration [7]. The laparoscopic approach is an excellent option for tumors located at the mobile wall of the bladder, allowing an easy and safe procedure.…”

Leiomyoma represents the largest subgroup of benign mesenchymal tumors that may arise anywhere within the genitourinary tract. Usual presenting symptoms include voiding symptoms such as obstruction and irritation. It can be diagnosed by careful physical examination assisted with ultrasound and endoscopic evaluation, but the confirmatory diagnosis is always histological. Bladder-conservative surgery is usually contemplated as the treatment of choice, be it transurethral resection or open surgery. This can include partial cystectomy due to the benign nature of the disease. Although the occurrence of this tumor is rare, it should be suspected with any urinary bladder tumor presenting with benign features. The prognosis is good with bladder preservative protocols.

“…The first form is the most frequent; it presents as small nodules leiomiomatosis associated with benign hyperplasia. The second form is the pure leiomyoma of the prostate; this form is avery rare entity [1]. True prostatic leiomyoma has been defined by Kaufman and Berneike as a smooth muscle tumor within the prostate or juxta-prostatic position, devoid of glandular elements [2].…”

Prostatic enlargement due to benign adenomatous hyperplasia is very common in elderly males. However, benign mesenchymal tumors especially true leiomyoma of the prostate are rare. We describe a 68-year-old male presenting a urinary obstruction lasting more than two years. The patient was referred for an acute urinary retention. The clinical examination was normal. The perrectal examination revealed an enlarged prostate without abnormalities. An endoscopic resection was performed. The histopathological examination revealed a benign smooth muscle tumor with absence of glandular hyperplasia; the result was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. Accordingly, the diagnosis of true leiomyoma of the prostate was made.
