[Leiomyoma of the large bowel].

The authors present a case study of a 48 year old man who was admitted to the hospital because of gall stone disease and a palpable abdominal tumour. Diagnostic laparoscopy was performed: chronic cholecystitis and an apple size tumour were found. The tumour was connected with colon ascendens. Laparotomy was performed and both the tumour and gallbladder were removed. The histological examination showed leiomyoma of the large bowel.
