Abstract:
Fibroids may produce a complications during pregnancy. A miscarriage may result especially if implantation occurs over a submucosal fibroid. The evidence would suggest that removal of submucosal fibroids or intramural fibroids with intracavitary component would increase pregnancy rates. Such fibroids may be easily removed through hysteroscopy.
