متن کاملUltrasonography of uterine leiomyomas
Uterine leiomyomas or uterine fibroids are the most common gynaecological tumours and occur in about 20-50% of women around the world. Ultrasonography (USG) is the first-line imaging examination in suspected fibroids and shows high sensitivity and specificity in diagnosing this condition. Ultrasound scans can be performed transvaginally (transvaginal scan - TVS) or transabdominally (transabdomi...
متن کاملGnRH agonists and uterine leiomyomas.
Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists are widely used in the treatment of women with symptomatic leiomyomas. The effectiveness of this treatment, as far as symptoms are concerned, is well established, and in recent years many studies have contributed to defining the optimal role for GnRH agonists. Side-effects and health risks prohibit the long-term use of these compounds. The combine...
