Uterine lipoleiomyomas are mostly found in the fundus or cervix and extremely rare in the broad ligament. Preoperative diagnosis of lipoleiomyoma of the broad ligament is very difficult due to its similarity to ovarian tumor. We report a 56-year-old menopausal woman with huge lipoleiomyoma ...
متن کاملTorsion of a non-gravid uterus with leiomyoma mimicking broad ligament leiomyoma.
T of a gravid uterus is rare, but torsion of a non-gravid uterus is rarer.1 The leading cause of torsion of a non-gravid uterus is leiomyoma. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) could be helpful in the diagnosis of torsion in some cases.2 We report a case of uterine torsion in which an anterior leiomyoma mimicked a broad ligament leiomyoma on imaging studies. A 36-year-old woman was referred to ou...
