    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Oncology
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Leiomyomas are benign smooth muscle tumors that can occur in various body parts.
    • Preputial leiomyomas are exceptionally rare, with limited documented cases in medical literature.
    • Understanding the presentation and management of rare genital tumors is crucial for urologists.

    Observation:

    • A patient presented with a confirmed diagnosis of leiomyoma originating from the prepuce.
    • The tumor, while rare, was successfully identified and characterized.
    • No significant complications were noted during the diagnostic process.

    Findings:

    • The prepuce leiomyoma was surgically excised using a wide circumcision technique.
    • Histopathological examination confirmed the benign nature of the tumor.
    • Post-operative recovery was uneventful, with complete tumor removal.

    Implications:

    • Wide circumcision is a viable and effective treatment option for preputial leiomyomas.
    • This case contributes to the limited body of knowledge on managing rare penile tumors.
    • Further research into the etiology and optimal management of preputial leiomyomas may be warranted.
