    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Leiomyomas are rare benign smooth muscle tumors that can occur in the bladder.
    • Diagnosis and optimal treatment for bladder leiomyomas remain challenging.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of bladder leiomyoma are presented: a 79-year-old female with hematuria and a 43-year-old female with hydronephrosis.
    • Initial evaluations included cystoscopy and ultrasound, suggesting submucosal bladder tumors.
    • One case involved left ureteral stenosis potentially linked to prior gynecological surgery.

    Findings:

    • Histological examination confirmed both lesions as bladder leiomyomas.
    • Both tumors were successfully treated by enucleation.
    • A review of 68 Japanese literature cases was conducted.

    Implications:

    • These cases underscore the diagnostic difficulties associated with bladder leiomyomas.
    • Further research is needed to establish optimal treatment guidelines.
    • Increased awareness may improve early detection and management of bladder leiomyomas.
