Abstract

SANDELIZ CARDENAS, Eduardo Domingo; GONZALEZ RIVERA, Ada  and  PEREZ LOPEZ, Arlienys. Multiple abdominal myomectomy. Medicentro Electrónica [online]. 2021, vol.25, n.1, pp. 113-120.  Epub Jan 01, 2021. ISSN 1029-3043.

We present two patients who had a myomectomy in January and March 2017, in Luanda, Angola. Both were treated in the Gynecology consultation due to increased abdominal volume, genital bleeding during and between periods, compressive symptoms characterized by urinary urgency, constipation and infertility. Laboratory tests, gynecological and renal ultrasound, as well as hysterosalpingography were performed. After the analysis of these tests, they were diagnosed with multiple uterine myomas, referred to the operating room with prior informed consent and underwent a multiple myomectomy without transoperative complications. The uterus was preserved in both patients, who had a satisfactory postoperative recovery. One of these patients got pregnant five months after surgery.

Keywords : myoma; leiomyoma; uterine myomectomy; infertility female.
