Vaginal leiomyomas are rare and only a small number of cases have been reported in the literature. Due to the rarity of the disease and complexity of the vaginal anatomy, definitive diagnosis and treatment are challenging. A 48-year-old female patient presented with a vaginal mass and urinary incontinence. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a clear tumor measuring 65x46 mm in diameter at the anterior vaginal wall. Intraoperatively, frozen-section analysis was performed to confirm that the tumor was benign. The tumor was resected using the transvaginal approach. The patient recovered well without any complications. The pathological diagnosis was leiomyoma. The present case suggests that intraoperative frozen-section analysis should be performed in all patients with vaginal wall tumors with MRI findings suggestive of malignancy, and surgical treatment should be performed once the diagnosis is confirmed to prevent misdiagnosis and incorrect treatment.
阴道平滑肌瘤较为罕见,文献中仅报道了少数病例。由于该病罕见且阴道解剖结构复杂,明确诊断和治疗具有挑战性。一名48岁女性患者出现阴道肿物及尿失禁。磁共振成像(MRI)显示阴道前壁有一个直径为65×46 mm的边界清晰的肿瘤。术中进行了冰冻切片分析以确认肿瘤为良性。采用经阴道途径切除肿瘤。患者恢复良好,无任何并发症。病理诊断为平滑肌瘤。本病例提示,对于所有MRI表现提示恶性的阴道壁肿瘤患者,均应进行术中冰冻切片分析,一旦确诊应立即进行手术治疗,以防止误诊和不当治疗。
