Huge Lower Segment Myoma and Pregnancy: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 7
Abstract
Different complications have been reported in pregnancy with fibroids whether in antepartum, during labor or in postpartum period. During pregnancy, uterine myomas are habitually asymptomatic and surgical removal is generally avoided except in a few selected cases. However, myomectomy during caesarean section seems to be feasible according to some authors, but this subject is still controversial view the risk of hemorrhage and hysterectomy. Therefore, we present here a case of a leiomyoma located in the uterine isthmus revealed by ultrasound assessment since 12 weeks of gestation, and a review of the literature to focus on complications of fibroids during pregnancy and to clarify the management modalities.
