Abstract EN
Leiomyomas are the most common pelvic tumors in women.
About 20–30% of women older than 35 are affected.
Rare conditions of leiomyomas have extrauterine locations.
Myxoid degeneration is a rare type of leiomyoma degeneration.
We report a case of solid-cystic myxoid leiomyoma in a 53-year-old woman complained of constipation, urinary hesitation, and malodorous vaginal discharge with palpable 17 × 12 cm mass between vagina and rectum.
Regarding the inferior location of the mass, a perineal approach was used to enucleate it.
This rare location has not been mentioned before.
The woman was finally diagnosed by pathologists which was myxoid leiomyoma.
