Parasitic myomas after laparoscopic myomectomy: case report.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To report a case of a woman who presented with parasitic myomas 27 months after laparoscopic myomectomy. DESIGN:Case report. SETTING:University medical center. PATIENT(S):A 31-year-old G0 woman who had a previous history significant for laparoscopic myomectomy with morcellation 27 months before. INTERVENTION(S):Repeat laparoscopic myomectomy and review of video footage from previous myomectomy. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):Pathology report. RESULT(S):Repeat laparoscopic examination revealed two pedunculated and two parasitic myomas. Review of video footage from initial surgery revealed pieces of myoma dispersed within pelvis during morcellation. CONCLUSION(S):Pieces of initial myoma dispersed within the pelvis during morcellation may have developed into parasitic myomas.
