Sumario:The association of myoma and pregnancy is becoming more frequent due to the increasing age of first pregnancy. It may affect the outcome of fertility, pregnancy, labor and peripartum course. A 37 years old patient was referred to our unit for discovering uterine leiomyoma at 37 weeks of pregnancy. Ultrasound screening showed a praevia isthmic leiomyoma measuring 16cm. A caesarean delivery was scheduled and a large interstitial isthmic uterine myoma measuring 25cm was found. Hysterectomy was corporeal. The post-operative and puerperium course was normal.
