Uterine leiomyomas, commonly known as fibroids, are one of the most common pelvic tumors found in women. Ultrasonography is the primary modality for evaluating leiomyomas. However, frequently these tumors are not accompanied by symptoms, and they are found incidentally during computed tomographic (CT) examinations performed for other indications. Because leiomyomas may first be noted on CT scan...
The relationship between benign uterine leiomyomas and their malignant counterparts, i.e. leiomyosarcomas and smooth muscle tumors of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP), is still poorly understood. The idea that a leiomyosarcoma could derive from a leiomyoma is still controversial. Recently MED12 mutations have been reported in uterine leiomyomas. In this study we asked whether such mutation...
Uterine leiomyomas are the most prevalent benign tumor type in women of reproductive age and are one of the most common indications for hysterectomy. The expression of five angiogenic factors, adrenomedullin (ADM), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), acidic fibroblast growth factor, basic fibroblast growth factor, and platelet-derived endothelial cell growth factor/thymidine phosphorylas...
Overview: Uterine leiomyomas (fibroids or myomas) are benign tumors. Since histologic confirmation of the clinical diagnosis is not necessary in most cases, and there is both growth and regression of fibroids, asymptomatic uterine leiomyomas can usually be followed without intervention. Research supports not treating asymptomatic fibroids. Treatments for symptomatic fibroids include medical man...
Background: Leiomyomas represent the most common benign uterine tumors. Typically asymptomatic, they may determine menometrorrhagia, abdominal pain and infertility. They may be singular or multiple and may have variable size. When leiomyomas increase in size, their vascular supply may become insufficient determining different types of degeneration: hyaline, myxoid, cystic and hemorrhagic (red)....
OBJECTIVE Uterine abnormalities, such as leiomyomas, endometrial polyps, and adenomyosis, are often clinically associated with irregular uterine bleeding. These abnormalities can have similar B-mode characteristics but require different treatment. The objective of this study was to develop diagnostic techniques based on ultrasound strain imaging that would allow in vivo visualization and charac...
Uterine leiomyomas are extremely common, benign, smooth muscle tumors that represent a significant public health problem. Although there have been few molecular studies of uterine leiomyomas, most of them have reported a very low frequency of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in different regions of the genome. The detection of LOH has been used to identify genomic regions that harbor tumor suppress...
GnRH agonist (GnRH-a) therapy is known to shrink uterine leiomyoma, although the molecular mechanisms responsible for this effect remain poorly understood. Conflicting results exist as to whether GnRH-a treatment increases apoptosis in leiomyoma cells. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of GnRH-a on uterine leiomyomas by profiling the expression levels of apoptosis-related mole...
Uterine leiomyomas and endometrial pathology are both associated with abnormal uterine bleeding. We report a case in which a nulliparous woman with heavy uterine bleeding and leiomyomas had undergone two prior hysteroscopic myomectomies for benign leiomyomas. She was evaluated, but was ineligible for a clinical trial of a novel Magnetic Resonance guided High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (MRgx20...
Although uterine leiomyomas are the most common neoplasms of the female genital tract, this is not the case when referring to women under the age of 20. Only a few cases of uterus leiomyomas have been reported in this age. Preoperative imaging evaluation is mandatory in adolescent women for the accurate detection, localization, and characterization of uterus leiomyomas. We report a case of a 16...
