Abstract:
Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of microwave ablation guided with laparoscopy and transvaginal ultrasound in the treatment of adenomyosis.Methods Seventy patients with 89 lesions of adenomyosis were treated with laparoscopy and transvaginal ultrasound guided microwave ablation.Intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed.The differences in dysmenorrhea score,menstrual flow and dysmenorrhea time before and after treatment were compared.Ultrasound examinations were performed 1,3 and 6 months after treatment to measure the volumes of uterus and adenomyosis lesions.Results Outflow liquid from vagina 1-3 days after treatment was found in 1 patient,and mild vaginal bleeding was found in 3 patients.No serious complication occurred in the other 66 patients.Compared with preoperation,the dysmenorrhea score,menstrual flow and dysmenorrhea time decreased in all patients after treatment (all P<0.01).The volumes of uterus and adenomyosis lesions 1,3 and 6 months after treatment were significantly less than those before treatment (all P<0.01).Conclusion Laparoscopy and transvaginal ultrasound guided microwave ablation is a safe and efficient therapy for adenomyosis.
