Experts explain the specific preoperative preparation for uterine fibroids

Preoperative preparation for uterine fibroids is a matter of great concern to many uterine fibroid patients and their families, and will directly affect the effect of uterine fibroid surgery. So what are the common preoperative preparations for uterine fibroids ? Let the experts tell you about the common preoperative preparations for uterine fibroids.

Generally, common preoperative preparations for uterine fibroids include:

1. Patient preparation:

Before the operation, the patient's physical condition should be adjusted to a better state as much as possible so that they can successfully pass the embolic reaction. The same preoperative preparations for uterine fibroids should be made according to conventional arterial embolization.

2. Equipment preparation:

Conventional angiography equipment, the Cobra catheter is commonly used for catheter form, and the 4F catheter is more suitable. If conditions permit, a microcatheter system can be used. This is an important preoperative preparation for uterine fibroids.

3. Embolic agents:

It is also an important preoperative preparation for uterine fibroids. Embolic agents are mostly PVA particles, gelatin sponges, stainless steel rings, etc. PVA is mostly used with a diameter of 300-500?; gelatin sponges can prolong the absorption time after high-pressure and high-temperature sterilization, and can be made into particles or strips, so the effect is better than conventional gelatin sponges; some people also use iodized oil as an embolic agent. Operation method: insert the catheter into the left and right internal iliac arteries for angiography. Uterine fibroid angiography shows thickening of the uterine artery, artery displacement and compression, straightening or circumferential blood vessels, and obvious tumor staining can also be seen. According to the angiography, the catheter is superselected into the bilateral uterine arteries, the embolic agent is infused, and the uterine artery is embolized.

The above is an introduction to the preoperative preparation for common uterine fibroids. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. Once you have uterine fibroids, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the disease.
