Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Small uterine myomas (<1.5 cm) pose a risk of growth, symptoms, and complications in women of reproductive age.
  • While malignancy is rare, histological analysis is crucial for definitive diagnosis.
  • Intracavitary myomas, even small ones, can be symptomatic and require treatment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review hysteroscopic techniques for treating small uterine myomas (<1.5 cm).
  • To highlight the feasibility of treating these myomas in an office setting without anesthesia.
  • To emphasize the safety and efficacy of ambulatory hysteroscopic myomectomy.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current hysteroscopic techniques for myoma ablation.
  • Focus on procedures applicable to small myomas with potential intramural components.
  • Description of treatment protocols for an ambulatory, anesthesia-free setting.

Main Results:

  • Hysteroscopic techniques allow for effective and safe treatment of small myomas in an office setting.
  • Ambulatory treatment without anesthesia or analgesia is feasible, reducing patient discomfort.
  • These minimally invasive approaches can address symptomatic and asymptomatic intracavitary myomas.

Conclusions:

  • Office-based hysteroscopic myomectomy is a viable option for small uterine fibroids.
  • Ambulatory treatment enhances patient comfort and reduces healthcare costs.
  • Hysteroscopic techniques provide a safe and effective solution for managing small myomas.
