Myomectomy as a reproductive procedure.
This series of 64 myomectomies describes the indications, technique, and efficacy of the procedure; the majority of operations were performed on large multinodular uteri. Indications included enlarging pelvic mass, menorrhagia, anemia, and pregnancy wastage in women who wished to preserve reproductive capability. Although infertility was not the primary indication in any case, 32 patients were nulligravid. Only 10 patients were parous and 14 had a history of spontaneous abortion or pregnancy wastage. The average age of the patients was 35.8 years (range, 27 to 47 years). There were no major complications and no patients received blood transfusions. Follow-up revealed three patients with recurrent tumors necessitating repeat procedures. Successful pregnancies have occurred in 40% of those attempting pregnancy. It is concluded that successful myomectomy can be performed in most patients regardless of uterine size, thereby preserving reproductive potential.
