Leiomyoma of the round ligament is part of a family of fibroids and is composed of smooth muscle, fibrous tissue, and fat (1). Leiomyoma of the round ligament is rare. The majority of cases are commonly located in the extraperitoneal region of the round ligament. Patients presenting with round ligament leiomyosarcoma sometimes experience abdominal pain, but many patients are asymptomatic (2). Most round ligament leiomyomas are diagnosed incidentally during physical health examinations or the imaging of other diseases of the abdomen. Our knowledge of this disease is limited due to the paucity of research and literature reports. In this paper, we present an unusual case of a patient with an intra-abdominal left leiomyoma of the round ligament and provide a review of the related literature. We also discuss imaging, which is essential for early diagnosis.
