SUMMARY 1. The thirty‐seventh case of leiomyoma of the prostate has been reported. 2. The literature has been reviewed and two cases have been excluded. 3. The aetiology has been discussed and the clinical features and methods of treatment have been summarised. I am indebted to Mr L. B. Goldschmidt, F.R.C.S., for permission to publish this case and for his help and encouragement. I would also like to thank Dr A. Kipps for his help with the pathological details and Mr G. McManus of the Department of Surgery for the photographs.
