Abstract |
Objective |
To evaluate the value of myomectomy during delivery by cesarean section (CS) in pregnant women with uterine fibroids.
Methods |
Retrospective cohort study of pregnant women diagnosed to have uterine fibroids during index pregnancy. Women who underwent myomectomy during CS (study group; n = 91) were compared with women in whom myomectomy was not performed during CS (control group; n = 87).
Results |
No significant difference between both groups in the amount of blood transfusion and postoperative hemoglobin level. The operative time was significantly higher in the myomectomy group than in the control group (80.22 ± 13.06 vs 56.67 ± 8.85 min; P < 0.001). Also, the postoperative hospital stay period was significantly higher in the myomectomy group (P < 0.001).
Conclusion |
Myomectomy during CS can be performed safely without increase in the peripartum maternal morbidities. It only may prolong the operative time and postoperative hospital stay period but it may have many benefits including avoiding another operation to remove fibroids.
