Leiomyoma of Testis: A Case Report and Literature Review
Keywords:
Testis, LeiomyomaAbstract
Leiomyoma is a benign smooth muscle neoplasm that is very rarely (0.1%) premalignant. They can occur in any organ, but they are infrequently found in the genitourinary tract. In the genitourinary tract, the renal capsule is the most common site of involvement. Intrascrotal leiomyomas are infrequently seen. Leiomyoma of testis is extremely rare. Herein, we report a case of leiomyoma of the testis.
