Case report: Bladder leiomyoma presenting as dysuria.

Leiomyoma of the bladder is an unusual cause of benign smooth muscle tumor, only reported about 250 times in the literature. Imaging studies including computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans are useful in defining the extent and location of the tumor, however, immunohistology samples must be obtained to rule out similar appearing cancerous masses. In this article, we report the case of a 50-year-old male diagnosed with leiomyoma of the bladder that initially presented as dysuria and raised suspicion of a bladder transitional cell carcinoma (TCC). We focus on the utilization of radiological imaging modalities for diagnosis, management, and preoperational planning with pathological findings for an optimized diagnosis.
