Abstract :
Bladder leiomyomas are rare benign mesenchymal tumors which account for less than 0.43 % of all bladder tumors with approximately 200 cases described in the literature. A case of urinary bladder leiomyoma is presented that was initially diagnosed to have bladder carcinoma on account of one week history of gross painless hematuria. The clinical presentation, imaging findings and management of this rare benign tumor is described.
