Mesenchymal tumors of the urinary bladder are rare and the majority of them are malignant. We report two cases of leiomyoma of the urinary bladder presenting with symptoms of bladder outlet obstruction. The first patient was managed with staged transurethral resections, and the second with holmium laser transurethral inoculation. The outcome was excellent in both cases. A review of the literature is also outlined.
