A 22-year-old woman presented with left
pelvic pain
and mass. Ultrasonography confirmed a multilocular left adnexal mass containing cysts of varying sizes. The patient had no pulmonary symptoms at the time of presentation. The mass was surgically excised and pathologic diagnosis of
lymphangioleiomyomatosis
(
LAM
) was made. Subsequently, she developed hemoptysis and pleural effusion. High-resolution computed tomography of the chest showed findings consistent with
LAM
. Early diagnosis and treatment for
LAM
was possible in this atypical case.

Leiomyomas account for less than 0.43% of all bladder tumors. To date only about 250 cases have been reported in the literature. Pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (
LAM
) is a rare lung disease featuring abnormal proliferation of atypical smooth muscle cells around bronchovascular structures. We describe a woman with
LAM
who presented with
pelvic pain
and was found to have a leiomyoma of the bladder wall. Although urologic manifestations of pulmonary
LAM
are uncommon, they should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a patient who presents with a pelvic mass and a history of
LAM
.
