Leiomyomas are benign mesenchymal smooth muscle tumours. Pure leiomyoma of prostate is very rare. Here we presented a case of 77-year-old men who admitted to hospital with symptoms of infravesical obstruction. The per-rectal and ultrasonographic examination revealed an enlarged prostate. Open prostatectomy procedure was performed. The prostate weigh was 172 gr in gross pathological examination and solid nodular lesion was observed on the cut surface of the prostate. Microscopically, the lesion was composed of spindle cell proliferation, without nuclear atypia, necrosis and mitotic activity. Radiological methods are inadequate for determination of the biological nature of such nodules. Therefore, histopathology is very important for excluding of malignancy. Open prostatectomy is an effective method for both treatment and diagnostic purposes.
