JOURNAL ARTICLE
Successful use of magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery to relieve symptoms in a patient with symptomatic focal adenomyosis.
Fertility and Sterility 2008 November
OBJECTIVE: To report a successful treatment of symptomatic adenomyosis using magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS).
DESIGN: Case study.
SETTING: General hospital.
PATIENT(S): A 47-year-old premenopausal woman with focal symptomatic adenomyosis.
INTERVENTION(S): MRgFUS.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Score on the Uterine Fibroids Symptoms Quality of Life (UFS-QOL) questionnaire and the degree of menstrual pain.
RESULT(S): Uterine Fibroids Symptoms reduced from 53 to 28 and the degree of menstrual pain reduced from 10 to 5.
CONCLUSION(S): For adenomyosis patients who wish to preserve their uterus, MRgFUS may be a promising alternative to hysterectomy. Additional studies of the safety and efficacy of MRgFUS in this indication should be conducted.
