平滑肌瘤是常见的妇科良性肿瘤，发生率高达30%。然而圆韧带平滑肌瘤是非常罕见的，如果有症状，可以表现为腹股沟疝。我们报告的情况下，一个47岁的妇女谁提出了一个不可还原的腹股沟肿块符合嵌顿疝。术中发现肿块为圆韧带平滑肌瘤，切除肿块后经组织病理学证实。虽然罕见，圆韧带平滑肌瘤应是女性腹股沟疝鉴别诊断的一部分。
Leiomyomas are common benign gynecologic tumors occurring in up to 30% of women. Round ligament leiomyomas however are very rare and, if symptomatic, can present as an inguinal hernia. We report the case of a 47-year-old woman who presented with an irreducible inguinal mass consistent with an incarcerated hernia. Intraoperatively, the mass was found to be a round ligament leiomyoma, a diagnosis that was confirmed by histopathology following excision of the mass. Although rare, round ligament leiomyomas should be part of the differential diagnosis of an inguinal hernia in females.
