Sammanfattning
Vaginal wall leiomyomas are rare. They are typically located in the anterior or lateral wall of the vagina. We report a case of a posterior vaginal leiomyoma which was mistaken for a cervical fibroma. Despite several examinations and biopsies to rule out a potential malignant condition, the diagnosis was delayed. Whenever there is a clinical suspicion of a vaginal leiomyoma, magnetic resonance imaging or translabial ultrasound are the recommended imaging modalities.
