Summary. Rectal leiomyomas are a rare conditions, with low reported incidence in literature and constitute about 0.1% of rectal tumours; in fact rectal leiomyomas occur in approximately 1 out of 2000-3000 rectal tumors. We report on a patient with a 3 cm semi-pedunculated colonic leiomyoma, which was successfully removed by endoscopic polypectomy after normal saline-epinephrine submucosal injection. When we encounter a tumor during a colonoscopic examination, we usually evaluate the tumor carefully and perform an endoscopic resection when we judge it is appropriate. When a symptomatic smooth muscle tumors smaller than 2 cm are incidentally found on colonoscopy, surgical resection is unneces…
