ABSTRACT
Objective:
To compare the effect of microwave ablation (MWA) and uterine artery embolization (UAE) for treatment of single intramural uterine leiomyoma.Methods:
Data of 49 patients with single intramural uterine leiomyoma were retrospectively analyzed, including 27 cases received MWA (MWA group) and underwent UAE (UAE group). The therapeutic effect and prognosis were compared between 2 groups.Results:
After treatment, menorrhagia, dysmenorrhea, anemia and other symptoms relieved and gradually disappeared in both groups. Complications, such as fever, abdominal pain and vaginal discharge were found but cured after symptomatic treatment or without treatment. The volume and maximum diameter of uterine leiomyoma in MWA group were less than those in UAE group 3 and 6 months after therapy (all P0.05).Conclusion:
Both MWA and UAE are effective and safe for treatment of single intramural uterine leiomyoma, and the former has better effect.
