Leiomyoma of kidney: An Indian experience with literature review
چکیده انگلیسی

INTRODUCTIONLeiomyoma of kidney is an exceptional finding in the urinary tract. Though most of these tumors are detected on autopsy, still it remains a diagnostic challenge.PRESENTATION OF CASEWe report three adult cases of renal leiomyoma in our institute who presented with abdominal mass and haematuria in last 8 years.DISCUSSIONLeiomyoma has been reported in other organs but renal leiomyoma is rare tumour, though in autopsy series they are second in order of frequency among the renal mesenchymal neoplasms, and few cases have been described in the literature. Still no Indian experience is evaluated on this rare site of occurrence.CONCLUSIONConsidering the difficulty of clinical diagnosis of this tumour, strong suspicion is indicated when a patient presents with voluminous, well circumscribed renal lesions.
