Objectives: Bladder leiomyoma is a rare tumor, its frequency being estimated below 1%.
Methods: We report the case of a 17-year-old mole patient presenting with hematuria and lower urinary tract irritative symptoms whose work up discovered two small bladder tumors.
Results: After TUR of the lesions the diagnosis of bladder leiomyoma was established; no recurrences have appeared on follow-up.
Conclusions: Bladder leiomyoma is a benign tumor, therefore surgery should be the most conservative. Bibliographic review of the Spanish urologic journals shows that this is the youngest patient reported to date.
