Abstract

Close
- This article summarizes the experience gained so far of uterine artery embolization (UAE) for symptomatic fibroids, reviewing publications related to this issue. More than 10 years have past since Ravina et al started to treat uterine fibroids with UAE. To date thousands of women have been embolized with excellent results and few serious complications. UAE is a successful alternative to hysterectomy for women wishing uterine preservation. Several cases of pregnancy and partus have been reported after UAE, and the method may be considered in women desiring future fertility, if the only remaining surgical option is complicated multiple myomectomy or hysterectomy. So far, recurrence after initially successful UAE has not been reported, but long-term results are yet to be determined.
