Delayed leiomyoma degeneration after microwave endometrial ablation.
BACKGROUND Microwave endometrial ablation is an effective treatment for dysfunctional uterine bleeding. Patients with leiomyomata, including submucosal leiomyomata up to 3 cm, may also be treated with microwave endometrial ablation. CASES A 46-year-old woman with multiple leiomyomata and menometrorrhagia underwent microwave endometrial ablation. Two months after microwave endometrial ablation...
متن کاملCASE REPORT Successful microwave ablation of endometrial carcinoma
An 89 year old woman had a two-month history of vaginal bleeding. Vaginal ultrasound examination showed an expanded endometrium. An outpatient endometrial biopsy was performed, which showed a moderately differentiated grade 2 endometrioid endometrial adenocarcinoma. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested that the tumour was minimally invasive and confined to the uterus (Fig. 1). The woman had lim...

متن کاملLong-term Results in the Treatment of Menorrhagia and Hypermenorrhea With a Thermal Balloon Endometrial Ablation Technique
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Evaluation of long-term results using a thermal balloon endometrial ablation technique to treat menorrhagia and hypermenorrhea, considered dysfunctional uterine bleedings. METHODS A single-arm, prospective study with long-term follow-up of 48 months at the department of obstetrics and gynecology, University of Kiel, Germany. Following hysteroscopic evaluation of the ...
متن کاملQuantification of Tissue Shrinkage and Dehydration Caused by Microwave Ablation_ Experimental Study in Kidneys for the Estimation of Effective Coagulation VolumeQuantification of Tissue Shrinkage/Dehydration in MW Ablation
Purpose: To quantify the extent of tissue shrinkage and dehydration caused by microwave (MW) ablation in kidneys for estimation of effective coagulation volume. Materials and Methods: MW ablations were carried out in ex vivo porcine kidneys. Six study groups were defined: groups 1A, 2A, and 3A for MW ablation (90 W for 5 min, 7.5 min, or 10 min), and groups 1B, 2B, and 3B for control (without M...
