Abstract

Leiomyoma of the urethra is a rare entity. We experienced a case of leiomyoma in the female urethra recently. Twenty-eight-year-old multiparous woman admitted to the Department of Urology, Busan National University Hospital with the chief complaint of a painless mass on the anterior lip of the external urethral meatus. The mass was easily removed by electroresection. It was an ovoid mass, 3.0 x 2.0 x 2.0 cm in size, and was firm and well-encapsulated. Histologically it was confirmed as a benign leiomyoma.
