Small intestine tumors, which take place in about % 75 in the length and more than % 90 of the mucosal surface of the gastrointestinal system are very rare. % 3-6 of all benign intestine tumors and % 1 of all malign intestine tumors are colonized in the small intestine. Leiomyomas are the most seen and symptomatic benign tumors. They are asymptomatic in general but might become symptomatic by growing in mass. Symptoms then are intestinal obtstruction, bleeding, intusseption and volvulus. They rarely present themselves ind the pelvis as a tumoral mass. We present a patient with an intestinal leiomyom in the pelvis which has been pre-diagnosed as an ovarial tumor. Our aim is reminding surgeons that postmenoposal prediagnosed ovarian masses might be intestine leiomyomas.
