We report the sonographic appearance of a testicular leiomyoma, which is a rare smooth muscle tumor of the testis. The patient presented with a painless testicular mass that was confirmed as an intratesticular tumor on sonographic examination. Histopathologic examination revealed a testicular leiomyoma. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2008.
