Uterine leiomyomas embolization with magnetic resonance imaging follow up

Introduction: Uterine artery embolization (UAE) has been used to treat symptomatic uterine leiomyomas, as women choose preserve their uterus, uterus sparing techniques such UAE have developed. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence signal characteristics and the degree of leiomyoma enhancement may be predict response UAE. Objective: investigate role in different myomas with follow up by MRI. Materials methods: This prospective observational study was included 40 females clinical criteria fibroid who weren’t suitable or refuse other modalities treatment underwent All patients were undergone pre-procedure pelvic ultrasound MRI, post-procedure Results: There a significant decrease volume post all infarction more than 50% occurred 38 (95%) patients. Bleeding anemia had improved significantly higher those unchanged/recurrent (P value <0.05). Post syndrome 10 (25%), only one patient (2.5%) puncture site hematoma, two (5%) complained infection re-bleeding 5 (12.55%)
