RODRIGUEZ CARBALLO, Michel; GONZALEZ GONZALEZ, Gonzalo Antonio and SANCHEZ FALCON, Ania. Leiomioma Vesical: Presentación de un caso clínicoVesical Leiomyoma: Presentation of a clinical case. Rev. Med. Electrón. [online]. 2009, vol.31, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1684-1824.
The vesical leiomyoma is a tumor of mesenchymal origin, and extremely rare. Most of them are diagnosed casually after the pathologic study of samples collected after surgery. Few cases were found in the reviewed literature, leading us to think of the scarce incidence of this kind of tumors. We present a case treated in our service, of an 18-years-old female patient, assisting to our consultation presenting a polaquiuria, ardor and mictional effort. The complementary exams led to the surgical treatment and follow up of the patient.
