Urethral leiomyomas are uncommon smooth muscle lesions usually affecting the proximal segment and the anterior wall of the urethra. These lesions are cured by simple excision. We present a 35-year-old lady with urethral leiomyoma of the distal portion of the urethra arising from the anterior wall and presenting as mass per urethra. The patient was treated by surgical excision and there was no recurrence on follow up.
