Dear Bhavna The 9cm submucous myoma can be removed by hysteroscopy. Uterine intracavitory fibroid are among the most frequent entities encountered in the practice of gynecology. It occurs in 20-40 percent of women during their reproductive years. Many surgical procedures other than hysterectomy are also commonly performed to deal with myomas. The purpose of this document is to review the literature and medical and surgical advances in the management of uterine myomas. We hope this helps healthcare providers the decision-making process as logical as possible. Uterine leiomyomata are referred to interchangeably as myomas, fibroids, fibromyomas, leiomyofibromas, and fibroleiomyomas. For deciding the complete strategy of your treatment you should consult our surgeon. With regards Sadhana |
