Describe the diagnostic evaluation and surgical management of an obstructive leiomyoma arising from the female urethra.
Evaluated a female patient presenting with voiding dysuria using urodynamic studies and cystourethroscopy.
Performed transurethral resection to excise the obstructive mass, followed by histopathological evaluation of the resected tissue.
Urodynamics identified bladder outlet obstruction with low peak urine flow and elevated detrusor pressure during the initiation of voiding.
Cystourethroscopy and pathology confirmed a 12.2 g benign leiomyoma of the proximal left urethral wall, and complete surgical excision led to full resolution of dysuria.
