A Rare Case of Round Ligament Leiomyoma Masquerading as Inguinal Hernia

Smooth muscle tumors originating from round ligament are rarewith leiomyoma being the most common type among them with unknown exact incidence. Its location at inguinal area/pubic area is confused with the clinical diagnosis of vulvar swelling, inguinal hernia, lymph node, or other nodal masses. Preoperative diagnosis is usually done by a computed tomography or an exploration of the affected area. Curative treatment is excision of the mass. Here, we report a case of a 47‑years‑old parous woman who presented with swelling over right inguinal region, on exploration, a myoma was found and was confirmed as leiomyoma on histopathology.
