Bladder leiomyosarcoma is a rare malignancy, it's nonurothelial tumors and account less than 5% of all bladder malignancies. Because of the very low incidence less than 200 cases reported in the literature, etiology is still little know, also there is lack of consensus regarding definitive treatment for this rare tumors. The most common clinical presentation is gross hematuria, which is reported in 81% of cases, followed by pollakiuria (28%) and dysuria (19%), respectively.
