Prolapsed cervical myoma during pregnancy.

Area of Science:

• Obstetrics and Gynecology
• Reproductive Medicine
• Surgical Innovation

Background:

• Prolapsed submucosal myomas during pregnancy are rare obstetric complications.
• Limited case reports exist for surgical intervention during gestation.

Purpose of the Study:

• To report a case of vaginal myomectomy for prolapsed cervical myoma in a pregnant patient.
• To review the literature on managing cervical leiomyomas during pregnancy.

Main Methods:

• Diagnosis of a prolapsed cervical myoma in a 13-week pregnant patient.
• Surgical intervention via vaginal myomectomy at 13 weeks and 5 days gestation.
• Postoperative monitoring for maternal and fetal well-being.

Main Results:

• The vaginal myomectomy was successfully performed.
• The patient experienced an uneventful postoperative recovery.
• The pregnancy was maintained following the procedure.

Conclusions:

• Vaginal myomectomy is a feasible surgical approach for prolapsed cervical myomas during pregnancy.
• This case contributes to the limited literature on managing rare uterine fibroid presentations in gestation.
• Further case reports are needed to establish best practices.
