{{Main|Uterine leiomyoma}}
===General===
*Extremely common... 40% of women by age 40.
*Benign.
**Can be a cause of [[abnormal uterine bleeding]] (commonly abbreviated ''AUB'').
*Large & multiple associated with infertility.
*May be treated medically with a selective progesterone receptor modulator, e.g. ''ulipristal'' (''Fibristal'').<ref name=pmid24712276>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Delev | first1 = DP. | title = Ulipristal acetate--a review of the new therapeutic indications and future prospects. | journal = Folia Med (Plovdiv) | volume = 55 | issue = 3-4 | pages = 5-10 | month =  | year =  | doi =  | PMID = 24712276 }}</ref>
 
===Gross===
Feature:
* Sharply circumscribed.
* Gray-white.
* Whorled appearance.
 
Factor that raise concern for leiomyosarcoma:
* Haemorrhage.
* Cystic degeneration.
* [[Necrosis]].
 
===Microscopic===
Features:
* Spindle cells arranged in fascicles.
** Fascicular appearance: adjacent groups of cells have their long axis perpendicular to one another; looks somewhat like a braided hair that was cut.
* Whorled arrangement of cells.
 
Negatives:
* Necrosis (low power) - suggestive of leiomyosarcoma.
* Hypercellularity.
* Nuclear atypia seen at low power.
* Few mitoses.
