A rare reason of post-menopausal post coital bleeding: vaginal leiomyoma case report and review of literature

The aim of this study is to present a case of vaginal leiomyoma, which is a rare reason of post-menopausal post coital bleeding. A 52-year-old woman was admitted to our clinic with symptoms of post-coital bleeding and dyspareunia. Gynecologic exam revealed a solid, mobile and painless mass in a diameter of 4 cm originating from posterior of the mid-vagina wall. The lesion was excited surgically and the pathological diagnosis of the lesion was a leiomyoma. The vaginal leiomyoma is a rare disorder seen in the woman's genital system in the postmenopausal period; it most frequently causes the complaints of dyspareunia, and it is defined as benign tumoral mass. Surgical procedure is generally advised for the treatment of vaginal leiomyoma. Prudent follow-ups of the patients after surgical operations are crucial in terms of sarcomatous growth and recurrence.
