“…In 1931, Kretschmer et al reported that the incidence in men and women was comparable [1]; however, more recent reports have indicated a possible higher incidence in women. Goluboff et al reported that 76% of 37 cases were female and subsequent several reports have suggested that it arises more frequently in women [2][3][4].…”

“…Bladder and urethral leiomyomas account for less than 0.43% and approximately 5% of the tumors of each site, respectively [22,23]. According to Zuckerkandl, since the report of bladder leiomyoma by Virchow, approximately 20 cases of bladder leiomyoma had been reported before the year 1900 and it is estimated that between 160 and 235 cases of bladder and urethral leiomyomas have been reported until now, including approximately 40 cases of urethral leiomyoma [1,18,24,25]. Most reports pertinent to urethral and bladder leiomyomas presented one or two cases, and only four reports presented more than three cases ( Table 1).…”

Through the experience of five cases of leiomyoma developed in the female bladder and urethra with a review of the literature, we have made an effort to characterize the association of symptom with the size and location of the tumor and demonstrate an appropriate treatment. The study population was composed of patients who underwent surgery for bladder or urethral leiomyoma in our hospital from March 1990 to April 2005. Their medical records were reviewed retrospectively concerning the symptom, size and location of leiomyoma, the result of cystoscope and radiological examination, surgical method, pathologic report, complications, and recurrence. Four cases were diagnosed as urethral leiomyoma and one case as bladder leiomyoma. All patients with urethral leiomyoma were admitted for the chief complaint of a palpable tumor. When the tumor size was small, if it was located on the lateral side of the urethra, it was asymptomatic, but if located in the midline, it presented irritative or obstructive symptom. When it was big, if located on the lateral side, it presented irritative rather than obstructive symptom, and if located in the midline, it presented obstructive symptom. One case of bladder leiomyoma was discovered incidentally during ultrasonic exam. In all five cases, surgical removal was performed and complications or recurrence were not detected afterwards. Bladder and urethral leiomyomas are very rare and cause diverse manifestations from asymptomatic to irritative or obstructive symptom. It is presumed that the location and size of the tumor are associated with symptom. Unless it is the case with severe hemorrhage or obstructive acute renal failure, immediate surgery is not required. However, it is desirable to distinguish leiomyoma from malignant or other benign tumors by surgical biopsy or removal.

“…However, most commonly observed benign mesenchymal tumors of these formations are leiomyomas [4]. Bladder leiomyoma was first described by Kretschmer et al [7] in 1931. Nevertheless, etiology of leiomyomas has not been fully elucidated yet.…”

Leiomyomas are non-epithelial benign and rare lesions of bladder. Their symptoms vary considerably based on the size, localization and nature of the lesion. Recently, an optimal treatment option for bladder leiomyoma is still contradictive. Transurethral resection, segmental surgical excision or partial cystectomy are main treatment modalities. This study presents a 41 year-old male case who applied to our center with hematuria complaint and had leiomyoma diagnosis based on tissue sampling following transurethral resection.

Mesane leiomyomu mezenkimal kaynaklı nadir görülen benign tümördür (1,2). Semptomlar tümörün bulunduğu yer ve büyüklüğüne bağlı olarak değişiklik gösterebilir. Depolama semptomları, boşaltım semptomları ya da hematüri görülebilmektedir. Asemptomatik hastalarda radyolojik incelemeler sırasında insidental olarak da mesane leiomyomu saptanabilmektedir (1,3). Mesane leiomyomunun radyolojik değerlendirilmesi ultrasonografi (USG), bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT) veya manyetik rezonans inceleme (MRİ) ile yapılabilir (4). Tedavi modalitesi ise tümör lokalizasyonu ve boyutuna göre değişkenlik gösterebilir (2).
