Introduction: Paraurethral leiomyoma is a rare benign neoplasm, with few cases described in the literature. Most of the data on prevalence are based on case series, the leiomyoma covers 5% of the paraurethral masses, occupying the fourth place as one of the less frequent causes, after parurethral diverticulum. Case: 43 years old patient with antecedents of recurring urinary infections and a previous 8 cm mass on the vaginal walls with 4 years of clinical evolution course. Cystoscopy was normal and ultrasound with a solid paraurethral injury. Colpotomy resection was performed without complications, resulting in leiomyoma pathology. Post-surgical control and normal uroflowmetry. Discussion and conclusion: leiomyomas should be considered as a possible diagnosis in case of a periurethral mass presence. Symptomatology is variable. The urinary symptoms are the most frequent as in this case. Ultrasonography and resonance are essential tools treatment are based on surgical resection which is usually vaginally.
