UTERINE ARTERY EMBOLIZATION IN AN UNDIAGNOSED UTERINE SARCOMA
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2001Uterine sarcomas are rare malignancies that resemble benign uterine leiomyomata. Uterine artery embolization is offered increasingly for treatment of uterine leiomyomata, which might lead to embolization of undiagnosed uterine sarcoma.A 52-year-old woman, gravida 7, para 6, with perimenopausal menometrorrhagia was diagnosed with uterine leiomyomata ...

Uterine artery embolization for the treatment of uterine fibroids
Current Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1998The first reported cases of uterine artery embolization in obstetric and gynaecological practice were carried out in the late 1970s. Recently, bilateral uterine artery embolization was used as a primary treatment for fibroids. Meticulous preoperative assessment is essential.

Uterine artery ligation for management of uterine fibroids
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2005AbstractObjectiveTo determine the efficacy of uterine artery ligation by the vaginal route for the management of symptomatic uterine fibroids. A pilot study had suggested that the procedure was effective.MethodsAfter bilateral uterine artery ligation, ultrasonic measurements of uterine and fibroid volumes were determined at 6 and 12 months in 21 women (

ABSTRACTThe use of uterine artery embolization is a new approach in the treatment of uterine fibroids. Embolization is a technique in which blood vessels that supply nutrients and oxygen to fibroids are blocked. This blockage causes the fibroid muscle cells to degenerate and form scar tissue, thus shrinking the fibroid.

Uterine artery embolization for the treatment of uterine leiomyomata
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2002AbstractObjectives: To evaluate the results of the uterine artery embolization (UAE) for the treatment of uterine fibroids. Methods: Twenty‐six patients with ultrasonographic diagnosis of uterine leiomyomata were submitted to UAE with polyvinyl alcohol particles. Imaging and clinical follow‐up was performed before the procedure, at 3 months, and 1 year

Uterine artery embolization for symptomatic uterine fibroids
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2006Uterine fibroids cause heavy prolonged bleeding, pain, pressure symptoms and subfertility. The traditional method of treatment has been surgery as medical therapies have not proven effective. Uterine artery embolization has been reported to be an effective and safe alternative to treat fibroids in women not desiring future fertility.

Role of uterine artery Doppler in the management of uterine leiomyoma by arterial embolization
Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2012AbstractObjectivesTo study Doppler changes in the uterine artery immediately following and 3 months after uterine artery embolization (UAE) and to test the feasibility of using uterine artery Doppler as a predictor of the predominant side of arterial supply to leiomyomas, amount of embolizing material needed and leiomyoma tumor volume at follow‐up ...

Uterine Artery Embolization for Adenomyosis
Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2021Adenomyosis is a benign gynecologic condition of the uterus similar to uterine leiomyoma (fibroids), but with different pathophysiology and prevalence. The treatment algorithms for symptomatic adenomyosis are not as established as for uterine fibroids and other gynecologic conditions. Uterine artery embolization (UAE) is a well-recognized treatment for
