Prostate leiomyomas are rare tumors causing gland enlargement. This case highlights robotic prostatectomy for treating this uncommon condition, emphasizing accurate diagnosis and personalized therapy.

Area of Science:

Urology
Oncology
Pathology

Background:

Prostatic leiomyoma is an exceptionally rare benign tumor, with fewer than 30 reported cases globally.
These tumors often originate as focal lesions within the prostate gland, leading to prostatic enlargement (prostatomegaly).

Observation:

A 72-year-old male presented with symptoms indicative of prostatic enlargement.
Diagnostic evaluation was essential to differentiate the tumor from a malignant counterpart, such as leiomyosarcoma.

Findings:

Pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a pure prostatic leiomyoma.
The patient underwent successful treatment via robotic prostatectomy, a minimally invasive surgical approach.

Implications:
