Paraurethral Leiomyoma in a Young Female: A Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research - Year 2018, Vol 12, Issue 3
Abstract
ABSTRACT Leiomyomas are benign tumours which originate in the smooth muscle rest cells. The origin of the tumour in the paraurethral region is rare. Herein, we describe a case of a 30-year-old female patient with a mass at the paraurethral region which turned out to be leiomyoma. Paraurethral leiomyoma make up only approximately 5% of urethral tumours. This case depicts the presentation and subsequent management of the patient with paraurethral leiomyoma.
