The histological features of the leiomyomas located in the vesicovaginal space are similar despite their different anatomic origin. Therefore it is necessary to follow other criteria in order to determine the sites from which they originate. A case of an extravesical pedunculated leiomyoma of the bladder, which had grown in the vesicovaginal space, is reported. Today’s imaging studies and surgical findings are of great value in helping to localize the structure from which the tumour has arisen.
