Estos últimos son los más raros (4-5% de todas las neoplasias vaginales) pues solo se han reportado alrededor de 300 casos.  CASO CLÍNICO:  Paciente de 47 años, acudió a la consulta ginecológica con una tumoración vaginal de dos meses de evolución, sin manifestaciones clínicas adicionales. En la exploración física se observó una tumoración elástica, en la cara posterolateral derecha de la vagina. La ecografía transvaginal no mostró la alteración. Después del tratamiento expectante inicial, en la siguiente revisión se comprobó el rápido crecimiento de la lesión y la manifestación de los síntomas vaginales. Se decidió la extirpación quirúrgica de la lesión. El estudio anatomopatológico reportó un leiomioma vaginal, con células con núcleos atípicos. Durante el seguimiento la paciente permaneció asintomática, sin signos de recidiva local.  CONCLUSIÓN: Si bien los leiomiomas son los tumores benignos más frecuentes en mujeres en edad reproductiva, su manifestación vaginal es excepcional. El diagnóstico definitivo se establece en el estudio anatomopatológico y el tratamiento de elección es la extirpación quirúrgica completa. Los tumores con elevada celularidad, alta concentración de células atípicas y actividad mitótica incrementada pueden tener un comportamiento benigno. Las recidivas también son excepcionales.]]></p></abstract>

Leiomyomas are especially infrequent, constituting only 4-5% of all vaginal tumors. In literature, about 300 cases have been reported.  CLINICAL CASE: 47-year-old patient, who attended a gynecological consultation with a vaginal tumor of two months evolution, without additional clinical manifestations. Physical examination refers to an elastic tumor on the right posterolateral aspect of the vagina. The transvaginal ultrasound did not show the alteration. After the initial expected treatment, in the following review the rapid growth of the lesion was observed, in addition to the manifestation of vaginal symptoms. Surgical removal of the lesion will be applied. The anatomopathological study reported a vaginal leiomyoma, and cells with bizarre nuclei. During the follow-up, the asymptomatic patient was observed, without signs of local recurrence.  CONCLUSION: Although leiomyomas represent the most frequent benign tumors in women of reproductive age, their vaginal manifestation is exceptional. The gold treatment is complete surgical extirpation and the definitive diagnosis is established by anatomopathological study. Tumors with high cellularity, high concentration of bizarre cells and increased mitotic activity appear to have a benign behavior. Although it is rare, there are cases of recurrence.]]></p></abstract>
