Abstract
Epithelioid Leiomyoma is a rare atypical smooth muscle tumor of the uterus. Here we present a case of
epithelioid leiomyoma of the uterus in a 42-year-old woman who attended out patient department with complaints of
bleeding per vagina. Grossly it was a well-circumscribed solitary mass measuring 5× 4 ×3 cm and microscopically it was
composed of bundles of smooth muscle cells with extensive areas of hyalinization and polygonal cells with clear to
eosinophilic cytoplasm in clusters.
