Abstract
Leiomyomas are benign tumours that can arise from any organ containing smooth muscle cells. They are commonly seen in the uterus but can also be found in other sites like the renal pelvis, bladder, spermatic cord, epididymis, prostate, scrotum and glans penis. Testis-associated leiomyomas are extremely rare. We present a case of testicular leiomyoma in a 69-year-old male who presented with a slowly growing, painless, firm, mobile lump in the left side of the scrotum. Histopathology and Immunohistochemistry showed findings suggestive of Leiomyoma.
