How to treat uterine fibroids better? Surgical treatment of uterine fibroids

Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological disease in women. They are benign tumors. There are many ways to treat uterine fibroids. Patients can choose the appropriate treatment method according to their own situation. So, do you know the symptoms of uterine fibroids? How to treat uterine fibroids?

Due to uterine fibroids, heavy menstrual flow, long menstrual cycles, and long-term excessive menstrual blood loss can lead to secondary anemia and even anemic heart disease, severe, general fatigue, pale complexion, shortness of breath, palpitations and other symptoms. It is common in submucosal uterine fibroids and intramural uterine fibroids. In this case, it cannot be delayed at will. It is recommended that surgery at the appropriate time is an effective treatment method, otherwise, it may be life-threatening.

If uterine fibroids are not treated effectively and promptly for a long time, they will cause heavy bleeding, or long-term excessive menstruation, and prolonged menstruation will lead to anemia, which cannot be cured by medicine.

Uterine fibroids can be treated with the following:

1. Ultrasound focused ablation treatment for uterine fibroids: The temperature of the tissue at the focal point rises rapidly to over 70 degrees. The high temperature destroys the tumor tissue, leading to protein denaturation and irreversible coagulative necrosis.

Its characteristics are direct killing and destruction of target tissues without damaging surrounding normal tissues, ensuring effective killing of tumor cells, selectively destroying small tumor blood vessels with a diameter of less than 2 mm, blocking the blood supply to the tumor, and no surgery, bleeding, or hysterectomy is required.

2. Myomectomy: It is divided into laparotomy, laparoscopic surgery and hysteroscopic surgery. Most hospitals will use single large submucosal or subserosal myoma.

3. Interventional treatment of uterine fibroids: non-surgical insertion of a very thin catheter into the blood supply artery of the uterine fibroids, i.e. the nutrient blood vessel, blocks the blood supply of the fibroids, causing them to lose nutrients and die on their own. However, most fibroids are not suitable for this method.
