Abstract

Leiomyoma of the bladder is a rare. benign mesothelial tumor. Genitourinary leiomyoma may arise in any anatomic structure containing smooth muscle. A case of severely calcified leiomyoma or bladder is presented. Excretory urogram and computed tomogram suggested a bladder mass with calcification. The cystoscopic findings demonstrated intra-luminal protruding bladder mass with intact mucosa which suggested mesothelial calcified bladder tumor.
