Uterine leiomyomata are the most frequent leiomyomata. However, this benign tumor can also arise in unusual locations (e.g. ovaries, urethra, bladder and vulva). The diagnostic process of ovarian leiomyomata can be difficult, and it is mostly incidental: the lesions are usually small and the clinical presentation is mainly asymptomatic. Since the first case described in 1862, less than 100 cases have been described. Some of these lesions have been treated laparoscopically. To our knowledge, this is the first worldwide case of an ovarian leiomyoma treated with a robotic approach (surgeon: Prof. P.C. Giulianotti, M.D., F.A.C.S.). Moreover, we provide an overview of the recent literature, and an intraoperative video of the intervention.
