Leiomyoma of the female urethra. A case report and review.
A case of urethral leiomyoma in a 39 year old woman is reported. It is always a benign neoplasia, frequently hormone-dependent, rarely relapsing after excision. An accurate review of the literature has found over 110 cases up to date, in opposition to a recent publication in the Journal of Urology in 1992, which reported only 36 cases up to that year.
