Accordingly, pregnant woman Dinh Thi My N (32 years old, in Bac Lieu province) is pregnant but has very large uterine fibroids and ovarian tumors.
At 38 weeks and 2 days, doctors realized that the risk factors for multiple uterine fibroids were large and could lead to heavy blood loss during surgery and even required hysterectomy, so consultation and surgery were performed .
Doctor Lieu Tuan Hung - Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Phuong Chau International Hospital Soc Trang - said that this is a complex surgical case, the entire uterus is occupied by many fibroids of different sizes.
The surgical team took the baby girl weighing 3,100 grams. After completing the cesarean section, the doctors continued to remove more fibroids of irregular size, about 20x40mm, completely preserving the patient's uterus.
According to doctor Lieu Tan Hung, the rate of women with uterine fibroids during pregnancy ranges from 1.6 to 2.7%. Uterine fibroids can compress and cause abnormal fetal position, easily cause premature birth, disrupt contractions during labor, and cause postpartum hemorrhage.
Dr. Hung recommends that during pregnancy, women with uterine fibroids need to go to a specialized medical facility for specific advice and instructions.
