Bladder leiomyoma is a rare benign bladder tumor. Our clinical observation presents a bladder leiomyoma with symptoms of urinary tract obstruction of a 40-year-old woman who came to the outpatient department with complaints of blood in the urine, discomfort in the area of the bosom articulation, and general malaise. She was examined by a urologist and referred for additional examination (ultrasound, MRI with intravenous contrasting). According to magnetic resonance characteristics, this pathologic formation has hypointense signal on T1 and T2 IP, with signal restriction at DWI, with active accumulation of contrast agent. Transurethral resection of bladder tumor is the main method of treatment of small endovesical tumors.
