Abstract:
Leiomyomas most frequently occur in the genitourinary and gastrointestinal system. This report describes the clinical and imaging findings of a leiomyoma originating in the prevesical space, a rare location. The mass abutted the fundus of the uterus, but after the correct identification of feeding vessels from the right iliac artery, prevesical leiomyoma was diagnosed radiologically.
