简要总结
To evaluate feasibility and efficacy of in-office hysteroscopic ablation of submucous uterine fibroid using diode laser
详细描述
A pilot study was conducted between January 2018 and January 2019 in a tertiary care university hospital. Patients with at least one symptomatic, class 0-2 of FIGO classification, uterine fibroid of ≤ 7cm in size were eligible for inclusion. Evaluation of the changes in fibroid size and vascularity was performed using 3D Doppler ultrasonography. Vaporization of the fibroid core was conducted using a 1470nm wavelength diode laser inserted through the hysteroscope's working channel. Primary outcome was the evaluation of the fibroid volume before and at 2 months after the procedure.
