The mass was thought to be irreducible inguinal hernia. Surgical exploration demonstrated a round ligament leiomyoma.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n DISCUSSION:<\/jats:title>\n A smooth muscle tumor in the round ligament of the uterus in the inguinal region is a rare entity and can be mistaken for an irreducible inguinal hernia. It is a rare condition occurring predominantly in premenopausal middle-aged women. Abdominal, inguinal, and vulvar locations have been described. Surgical excision is the curative treatment.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSION:<\/jats:title>\n Leiomyoma of the round ligament should be entertained as a possible etiology of inguinal mass.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2013.03.029","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,16]],"date-time":"2013-04-16T22:17:50Z","timestamp":1366150670000},"page":"577-578","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["A rare inguinal mass"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Elif","family":"Colak","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nuraydin","family":"Ozlem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sad\u0131k","family":"Kesmer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kadir","family":"Yildirim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-5-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"819","DOI":"10.1148\/rg.283075110","article-title":"The inguinal canal: anatomy and imaging features of common and uncommon masses","volume":"28","author":"Bhosale","year":"2008","journal-title":"Radiographics"},{"key":"R2-5-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"375","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jmig.2006.03.008","article-title":"large symptomatic leiomyoma of the round ligament","volume":"13","author":"Vignali","year":"2006","journal-title":"Journal of Minimally Invasive Gynecology"},{"key":"R3-5-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"357","DOI":"10.18295\/2075-0528.1388","article-title":"Leiomyoma of the round ligament of the uterus: case report end review of the literature","volume":"12","author":"Ali","year":"2012","journal-title":"Sultan Qaboos University Medical Sciences Journal"},{"key":"R4-5-20260114","first-page":"571","article-title":"Abdomino-pelvic leiomyoma of the round ligament: contribution of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging","volume":"32","author":"Michel","year":"2003","journal-title":"Journal de Gynecologie Obstetrique et Biologie de la Reproduction"},{"key":"R5-5-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"375","DOI":"10.1016\/S0899-7071(98)00021-7","article-title":"Leiomyoma of the extraperitoneal round ligament: CT demonstration","volume":"23","author":"Warshauer","year":"1999","journal-title":"Clinical Imaging"},{"key":"R6-5-20260114","first-page":"912","article-title":"Clear-cell epitheloid leiomyoma of the of the round ligament","volume":"12","author":"Bakotic","year":"1999","journal-title":"Modern Pathology"},{"key":"R7-5-20260114","first-page":"633","article-title":"Parasitic leiomyoma.
