ABSTRACT
Leiomyomas are benign tumors of smooth muscle origin that can occur at any location in the urinary tract. The kidney capsule is the most common location in the genitourinary tract. Leiomyomas of the urethra are a very rare entity; they are more frequent in females than in males. Only eight cases leiomyomas of the male urethra have been reported in the English-language medical literature. We report one additional case of pedunculated leiomyoma originating from the posterior wall of the male prostate urethra; this tumor appeared to be a bladder tumor on computed tomography.
