Abstract:
Objective To analyze the clinical data of selective uterine arterial embolization in treating uterine leiomyoma retrospectively. Methods Super-selective arterial embolization were performed using Seldinger's technique. The degree of shrinkage of uterine and leiomyoma were measured, and the influence of the treatment on ovarian function was analysed as well. Results After embolization, uterine and leiomyoma significantly shrinked. Uterine leiomyoma artery embolization(UAE) had no influence on ovarian function. Conclusions UAE is an effective method in treating uterine leiomyoma.
