Leiomyoma of the Prostate Treated via Holmium Laser Enucleation: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Leiomyoma is a rare tumor that arises from mesenchymal cells, with few reported cases of treatment using holmium laser enucleation of the prostate. A 74-year-old man with dysuria had a mass near the bladder neck in magnetic resonance imaging; this entity was suspected to be a leiomyoma. The patient underwent holmium laser enucleation of the prostate and one lobe was removed. However, the mass was firm and morcellation was difficult to break into small pieces. Therefore, it was fragmented via trans-urethral resection and removed with a curette. The postoperative course was favorable, with a positive clinical outcome. This case highlights the efficacy of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate in the management of prostatic leiomyoma and emphasizes its importance as a viable treatment option.
