Myoma praevia and pregnancy
Abstract
The association of myoma and pregnancy is becoming more frequent due to the increasing age of first pregnancy. It may affect the outcome of
fertility, pregnancy, labor and peripartum course. A 37 years old patient was referred to our unit for discovering uterine leiomyoma at 37 weeks of
pregnancy. Ultrasound screening showed a praevia isthmic leiomyoma measuring 16cm. A caesarean delivery was scheduled and a large interstitial
isthmic uterine myoma measuring 25cm was found. Hysterectomy was corporeal. The post-operative and puerperium course was normal.
