Successful strategy for the hysteroscopic myomectomy of a submucous myoma arising from the uterine fundus.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To introduce a technique for hysteroscopic resection of submucous myoma arising from the uterine fundus. DESIGN:Case report. SETTING:University hospital. PATIENT(S):A 43-year-old nulliparous Japanese woman. INTERVENTION(S):An original combination technique of hysteroresectoscopy using circumferential myoma scraping, central vaporization, and intraoperative injection of prostaglandin F2alpha. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):Evaluation of clinical symptoms and imaging diagnosis. RESULT(S):Resection of a 40-mm fundal myoma was performed hysteroscopically, and the menorrhagia of the patient was remedied by the operation. CONCLUSION(S):Although large sessile fundal myomas are difficult to resect by hysteroscopic myomectomy, our original strategy may allow safe and certain surgery in such cases.
