Abstract

Abstract : (Abstracted from Am J Obstet Gynecol 2020;222:345.e1–345.e22) Uterine fibroids can have a substantial impact on quality of life of reproductive aged women and are a leading cause of morbidity and surgery in affected women. A uterine-sparing treatment option for patients with symptomatic uterine fibroids is myomectomy.
