ABSTRACT
Fibroid is the most common uterine tumor seen in women of the reproductive age group. Broad ligament fibroids are very rare extra-uterine fibroid. Usually, extra-uterine fibroids arise from the genitourinary tract like urinary bladder, urethra, ovary, or vulva. These extra-uterine fibroids may mimic malignancies. Appropriate use of imaging modalities and awareness of unusual presentation may prevent serious diagnostic error and potentially harmful management. We report an incidentally detected case of wandering leiomyoma with unusual imaging findings in 27 years old nulliparous female during her infertility work up.
