Abstract
Leiomyomas, benign tumors, can arise from any organ containing smooth muscle. In the genitourinary tract, the renal capsule is most commonly involved. Intrascrotal leiomyomas are infrequently seen. Testis-associated leiomyomas are extremely rare. We report here testis associated leiomyoma.
