Uterine artery embolization for the treatment of uterine leiomyomas is gaining acceptance as an effective alternative to surgical treatment in preserving uterus and reducing symptoms. Vaginal expulsion of leiomyomas after UAE is uncommon, and has been regarded as a side effect of the procedure, as well as a natural phenomenon of treatment response. A-28-year-old unmarried woman who has been suffered from menorrhagia underwent UAE. MRI revealed the remnant leiomyomas were reduced in size and volume and also symptoms of leiomyomas were much improved. After 6 month, We've made sure about non-visualization of leiomyoma on follow-up pelvic dynamic MRI. We report this rare case of vaginal expusion of intramural leoimyoma with a brief literature.
