Abstract

Uterine artery ligation or embolization is a minimally invasive alternative for treatment of symptomatic leiomyoma. However, the experience with pregnancy management and outcome after ablating uterine blood flow is still unknown. We have recently experienced a case of a woman who had two successful spontaneous intrauterine pregnancies after laparoscopic uterine artery ligation to treat uterine myoma for dysmenorrhea and menometrorrhagia.

Key Words: Myoma, Laparoscopic uterine artery ligation, Pregnancy
