We report the case of a patient who presented with a bulky perineal mass expelled from the introitus. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed that it was prolapsed submucosal uterine leiomyoma. It is unusual that submucosal leiomyoma is expelled to the perineum, but the MR imaging findings were characteristic and had a "broccoli-like" appearance. Familiarity with this appearance may be helpful in diagnosing prolapsed leiomyoma which is uncommon but has characteristic imaging feature.
我们报告了一例患者,其表现为从阴道口排出一个巨大的会阴部肿物。计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像显示,这是一个脱垂的黏膜下子宫肌瘤。黏膜下肌瘤脱垂至会阴部并不常见,但磁共振成像表现具有特征性,呈“西兰花样”外观。熟悉这种表现可能有助于诊断脱垂的平滑肌瘤,这种情况虽不常见,但具有特征性的影像学特征。
