Leiomyoma of tunica albuginea

Abstract EN

Leiomyoma of the tunica albuginea is an extremely rare benign tumor of the genitourinary tract.

A thorough and proper examination and investigation are necessary for proper management and testis salvage surgery should be considered if feasible in such cases.

We present a fifty-six-year-old male who had benign smooth muscle tumor (leiomyoma) arising from tunica albuginea which was successfully treated with testis sparing excision of the tumor.

This is the first case of leiomyoma of tunica albuginea which has been reported in the Kingdom of Bahrain.
