ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis is a rare, benign entity and approximately 30 cases have been described previously. CASE: A 42-year-old woman who complained of abdominal pain had a pelvic ultrasound scan showing a uterine mass. During the operation, the surgeon observed that both ovaries, the broad ligament, and the pelvis contained various nodules of striking size. On sectioning, uterus and ovaries contained multiple nodules of elastic consistency; microscopically, all consisted of benign smooth muscle tissue. CONCLUSION: Leiomyomatosis may exhibit concomitant parametrial, pelvic, and bilateral ovarian involvement.
