“…In a series of 15 cases, no disease recurrences were reported during a mean follow-up of 62 months when the tumor had one or fewer mitotic figures.

Leiomyosarcomas (LMSs) account for <0.1% of all bladder malignancies. Due to the infrequent occurrence of these tumors, established guidelines for management are lacking. Conventionally, radical extirpative surgery has been advocated. We present our experience with organ preservation in a young male presenting with LMS bladder. A brief review of literature supporting organ preservation in selected cases has also been presented.

“…Leiomyosarcoma, arising from urinary bladder smooth muscle, was first reported by Rowland and Eble. 2 Gross hematuria, the most commonly presenting symptom, accounts for more than 80% of cases. Strong evidence exists that the incidence of leiomyosarcomas is increased in patients receiving pelvic radiotherapy or systemic chemotherapy such as cyclophosphamide 3 …”

The pathophysiology of bladder leiomyosarcoma, a rare disease with aggressive mesenchymal tumor, is not certain, but its main symptoms are hematuria, dysuria and abdominal pain. Cases described in the literature are few. This report describes a case of a leiomyosarcoma of the urinary bladder in a 49-year-old woman. After CT scanning revealed a heterogeneously enhanced 4-cm mass involving the bladder neck and anterior wall, further examinations detected no metastatic lesion. Cystoscopy and transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) were performed. The histopathological diagnosis was leiomyosarcoma. Postoperative period was uneventful. The patient experienced complete resolution of urologic symptoms. Repeat-TURBT was performed 70 days after first surgery. The patient has remained disease-free 18 months after surgery.
