According to experts, hysteromyoma, also known as uterine leiomyoma, is the most common benign tumor of female genitalia. Many patients are worried about the recurrence of hysteromyoma after operation. The following experts explain the recurrence of hysteromyoma after operation.

Can uterine fibroids recur after removing uterus

First: many women are afraid of suffering from hysteromyoma, because they are most worried about the need for surgical treatment after suffering from hysteromyoma, and they are also worried about some sequelae after surgery.

Second, not all patients with uterine fibroids need surgery. There are many methods for the treatment of uterine fibroids, according to the patient's age, constitution, the size of the fibroids, and the accompanying symptoms.

Third: if the patient has no symptoms of anemia, myoma less than 5cm, no obvious accompanying symptoms or nearly 50 years old, that is, perimenopausal patients, can take conservative treatment, that is, oral drug treatment, but there is a premise that there is no cervical lesions. If the patient is young and the symptoms of anemia are prominent, subtotal hysterectomy can be performed if the condition of cervix is good under 40 years old, and uterine artery embolization can be performed if the anemia is mild (some are called interventional therapy, which can preserve the uterus), but this method can not guarantee no recurrence in the future.

matters needing attention

Generally speaking, patients over 45 years old are advised to have total hysterectomy, that is, not to retain the cervix, in order to prevent cervical cancer or recurrence of uterine fibroids. If anemia is serious, it can be resected best, subtotal resection has no effect on sexual life, interventional therapy has poor long-term effect.
