ABSTRACT = {A case of leiomyoma of the urinary bladder, a rare benign 
tumor, in a 56-year-old female fi rst seen with bilateral fl ank 
pain radiating to both groins, is reported. Examination 
showed a well developed female with obesity (260 pounds) 
and elevated blood pressure (132/90 mmHg). Evaluation 
with ultrasound, cystoscopy, urodynamics, and cytology 
contributed to the diagnosis of urinary bladder leiomyoma. 
Ultrasound detected a mass in the urinary bladder, and 
it was confi rmed by cystoscopy to be a 5 cm to 6 cm 
bladder mass on the anterior bladder wall. The mass was 
prolapsing as a ball valve into the urethra at the level of 
the bladder neck. Frozen section of the mass showed it to 
be leiomyoma.},
