Vaginal leiomyomas are rare. They usually arise from the anterior vaginal wall. We report a case of a vaginal leiomyoma arising from the right lateral wall that presented as a gluteal swelling with pus discharging per vagina, creating a clinical dilemma in diagnosis. Preoperative imaging and biopsy may help to rule out malignancy. The size of the tumor necessitated abdominoperineal approach and hysterectomy for better surgical access. To the best of our knowledge such a clinical presentation of a vaginal leiomyoma has not been reported in the literature.

Vaginal Wall Leiomyoma: A Case ReportBabcock University Medical Journal (BUMJ)
Leiomyoma of the anterior vaginal wall: a rare caseBackground: Leiomyoma is a benign smooth muscle mesenchymal tumor, usually of uterine origin but may rarelydevelop in the vaginal walls. Case presentation: A case of 40-year-old para 5+0 woman with anterior vaginal wall leiomyoma is reported. Thepresentation mimics that of uterovaginal prolapse and hence presents a diagnostic challenge. The unusualappearance of the protrusion, failure to reduce at any time even while lying down, and complete absence of urinarysymptoms raised the suspicion of a rare case. The diagnosis was made through examination under anesthesia,cystoscopy, and biopsy. Histological examination of the biopsy specimen confirmed vaginal wall leiomyoma. Thepatient had complete excision of the mass without any complications. Discussion and Conclusion: Vaginal wall leiomyoma is a rare benign vaginal lesion that can easily bemisdiagnosed. Diagnosis involves critical clinical evaluation, especially during pelvic examinations. Any vaginalprotrusion should be approached with...

Vaginal tumours are rare and include papilloma, hemangioma, mucus polyp, and rarely leiomyoma. Vaginal leiomyomas remain an uncommon entity with only about 300 reported cases since the first detected case back in 1733 by Denys de Leyden. These tumors arise most commonly from the anterior vaginal wall causing varied clinical presentations. They may or may not be associated with leiomyomas elsewhere in the body. A case of a 30 year old nulliparous lady presented with a cauliflower like growth outside the introitus covering the external genitalia. It is a firm growth with a short pedicle arising from the anterior vaginal wall close to the urethral meatus. Biopsy from the growth revealed diffuse sheets of polymorphs, lymphocytes and congested capillaries. Excision of the growth was done and the histopathological examination revealed fibroleiomyoma. Leiomyomas are common benign tumors in the uterus. However, vaginal leiomyomas remain an uncommon entity. Vaginal leiomyomas may present wit...

Leiomyoma of the Vulva: A Diagnostic Challenge Case Report2016 •
Uterine leiomyomas are common and can affect up to 30% of women older than 35 years. Despite this, leiomyomas of the vulva are rare, masquerading, and usually misdiagnosed as Bartholin cyst preoperatively. These smooth muscle tumors are typically painless, solitary, and well circumscribed and can affect female of any age group. We present a case of a 46-year-old female that presented to the clinic with 2-year history of right labial mass and was diagnosed as Bartholin cyst initially. The patient underwent elective excision under spinal anaesthesia and the mass was removed. The final diagnosis after microscopy result showed benign vulvar leiomyoma.
