Abstract:
Objective To investigate the hemodynamic changes before and after uterine arterial embolization(UAE) in the treatment of adenomyosis. Methods UAE was performed in 30 patients with adenomyosis diagnosed by clinical manifestation, magnetic resonance and/or color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI). The mean flow velocity(Vm), resistance index(RI) and pulsatility index(PI) of bilateral uterine arteries were measured by CDFI 1 week before,1 week,1 month and 3 months after UAE. Mean time of the blood flow in normal myometrium and adenomyosis lesions were observed by color Doppler energy. Results Vm, PI and RI were markedly reduced after UAE, especially on the 7th day after UAE (P
