Abstract EN

We report the case of a 40-year-old woman who presented with a large perineal mass with no rectal or vaginal involvement.

Imaging could not rule out malignancy.

She underwent wide surgical excision.

Histological analysis revealed a large atypical leiomyoma, measuring 24 × 12 × 8 cm.

Followup after two years showed no recurrence and she has been asymptomatic since surgery.

This is the largest perineal leiomyoma reported so far.
