When myomectomy is appropriate
Symptomatic fibroids (heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, pressure symptoms) where uterine preservation is desired – particularly relevant for women planning future fertility.
Laparoscopic approach
Uterine wall incision, careful myoma enucleation, and meticulous closure of the uterine defect in multiple layers. Energy source selection minimises thermal damage. Specimen retrieval through extended port site or specimen bag.
Recovery and fertility
Heavy menstrual bleeding improves in over 90 percent. Pregnancy rates are favourable in women with prior infertility. Recurrence of new fibroids occurs in 15-30 percent over 5-10 years.
