1、Leiomyoma of UterusZhong gang Department of Gynecology and ObstetricTongji HospitalIntroduction vUterine enlargement as a result of leiomyoma is common in clinical practice.vMyoma are the commonest new growths of the uterus and one of the most common tumors of the human body.vThese occur in approxim

2、ately,20%of women over 30,25%of women over 40.Aetiological factorsvFemale Hormones Estrogens Progestrons vGrowth Factors Basic fibroblast growth factor(BFGF).Insulinlike growth factor(IGF)-I.Epidermal growth factor(EGF).Anatomy of uterusClassificationClassificationvAccording to location of uterine m

3、yomata have been divided in vCorporeal fibromyomata(90%)vCervical myomata(10%).ClassificationvAnd corporeal myomata have been divided:vIntramural fibromymata 60-70%vSubserous fibromymata 20%vSubmucous fibromymata 10-15%ClassificationvIntramural fibromymata with intramural fibromyomata enlargement of

4、 the uterine body usually occurs,often with elongation of its cavity so that there is increased menstrual loss.Classification Subserous fibromymata vSize:from small nodules to enormous masses of 20 kg or more in weight.vPedunculated myoma:they tend to grow up into the abdomen and the broad ligament,

5、vRarely torsion may occur,resulting in interference with the blood supply to the tumor.ClassificationvSubmucous fibromyoma.Some intramural tumors are extruded towards the uterine cavity.vThe uterus contracts in an attempt to expel the tumor and it may be extruded until it is only attached to the ute

6、rine wall by a stalk and is known as a fibro-myomatous polyp PathologyvNacked eye appearance.on section the fibromyoma is paler,harder and more fibrous than the uterine wall.vOn comparing an intramural tumor with the surrounding false capsule of uterine wall the difference is well marked.Nacked eye

7、appearanceSmooth muscle tumors of the uterus are often multiple.Seen here are submucosal,intramural,and subserosal leiomyomata of the uterus.PathologyvMicroscopical structure.These growths are composed of unstriped muscle and fibrous tissueHere is the microscopic appearance of a benign leiomyoma.Nor

8、mal myometrium is at the left,and the neoplasm is well-differentiated so that the leiomyoma at the right hardly appears different.Bundles of smooth muscle are interlacing in the tumor mass.DegenerationvThese tumors grow slowly;in some cases there may be no evident change in size for many years.vIn a

9、 few cases growth is more rapid and secondary changes may also cause swelling of the tumor.DegenerationvHyaline degeneration is the commonest change seen in fibromyomata.It is caused by a gradual inadequacy of the blood supply.vCystic degeneration is not uncommon,especially after the menopause,and i

10、s due to liquefaction of the areas of hyaline change.DegenerationvRed degeneration.In this variety of degeneration the affected area is stained red and resembles raw meat.It is most freguently seen during the pregnancy and in postpartum.Degeneration Malignant change vIn 0.1to 1%of cases,malignancy a

11、s leiomyosarcoma may develop.It is most likely to be seen in large tumors.vMalignancy is more typical in older patients,especially postmenopausal patients vPresention with rapidly enlarging uterine mass and postmenopausal bleeding.vMetastasis occurs rapidlly in these cases.This is a leiomyosarcoma p

12、rotruding from myometrium into the endometrial cavity of this uterus that has been opened laterally so that the halves of the cervix appear at right and left.Fallopian tubes and ovaries project from top and bottom.The irregular nature of this mass suggests that is not just an ordinary leiomyoma.Symp

13、tomsvBleeding is the most common presenting symptom in uterine fibroids.vMenorrhagia is freguent reason for patients to seek advice.vThe periods increase in amount and duration.SymptomsvBleeding vSubmucous fibromyomata menorrhagia is nearly always present,and quite small tumors can lead to severe an

14、aemia.vIntramural tumors may increase the lossvSubserous growths do not affect the menstrual loss.SymptomsvBleeding vMechanisms for increased bleeding:vAlteration of normal myometrial contractile functionvInability of the overlying endometrium to respond to the normal E/P menstrual phases.vPressure

15、necrosis of the overlying endometrial bed.SymptomsvAn abdominal tumour is sometimes the first thing that the patient notices.The tumor is not tender and rarely gives rise to pain.vDischarge is rarely a prominent symptom except during the extrusion of fibromyomatos polyp through the cervical canal.Sy

16、mptomsvPain is not a common symptom.vwhen it occur it is generally an indication that there is associated vendometriosis vor pelvic inflammatory disease,vor some complication of the tumor such as red degeneration or torsion.SymptomsvPelvic pressure:pressure on the bladder leading to frequency and re

17、tention of urine.Physical signsvThe physical signs vary with the size,position and number of the tumors.vA symmetrical enlargement of the uterus is found with a submucos growth.vMore often the enlargement is asymmetrical;it is often nodular on the surface because there are multiple tumor.vSubserous

18、tumors with little myometrial covering often fell particularly hard.Physical signsvOn pelvic examination the cervix may be found to be pushed down or displaced to one side.If it is expanded by an intracervical tumor,or it may be dilated with the lower pole of a tumor left within it.DiagnosisvThe dia

19、gnosis of these tumors is usually made vby clinical examination,include abdominal and bimanual palpation,vor imaging studies.vIn addition,irregularities of the uterine cavity can be detected at the time of endometrial currettage.DiagnosisvPelvic ultrasound is the most commonly used for confirmation

20、of uterine myomas.vDilation and curettage may provide relevant information,because larger tissue specimens,including small submucous myomas,may be obtained.Pelvic ultrasoundPelvic ultrasoundHysteroscopyvHysteroscopy may also be used to evaluate the enlarged uterus by directly visualizing the endomet

28、rms:vMyomectomy is occasionally warranted in younger patients whose fertility is compromised by the presence of myomas.vHysterectomy:although hysterectomy is commonly performed for uterine myomas,it should be considered as definitive treatment only in symptomatic women who have completed childbearing.Uterine Fibroid Embolization (Uterine Artery Embolization)Uterine Fibroid Embolization (Uterine Artery Embolization)
