Filter by:The goal of the ALOFT study is to understand the health of women in the 12 years following a uterine fibroid (UF) treatment. ALOFT is a multi-center, prospective, observational cohort study of approximately 700 women who have undergone uterine-sparing treatment procedures for UF and previously participated in the longitudinal studies COMPARE-UF (NCT02260752) or ULTRA (NCT02100904). The primary uterine sparing treatment procedures undergone by study participants are myomectomy, endometrial ablation (EA), uterine artery embolization (UAE) and laparoscopic radiofrequency ablation (RFA). A smaller number of women may be studied who underwent focused ultrasound, intrauterine device (IUD), and medical management. Two follow-up study contacts with COMPARE-UF and ULTRA participants will occur to assess changes in UF symptoms and treatment failure which is defined as the need for another UF treatment procedure. Questionnaires will be used to collect data on patient-reported characteristics and outcomes and quality of life. The study's analyses will focus on comparisons of primary and secondary outcomes among women.
Myomectomy was preferably applied in females with reproductive requirements, which could be achieved by transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (TU-LESS) or multi-port laparoscopic surgery (MPLS). Power morcellation used in MPLS was correlated with unidentified risk of tumor dissemination, especially in cases with accidental surgical findings of uterine sarcoma or leiomyosarcoma. Moreover, TU-LESS was reported to exceed MPLS in fast recovery. Therefore, the aim of this prospective cohort study is to compare the effectiveness of fast recovery and relative risk of tumor dissemination between TU-LESS and MPLS in myomectomy for the treatment of uterine fibroids.
To research risk factors for recurrence of uterine fibroids and build a prediction model of recurrence of uterine fibroids to facilitate the early detection as well as the early intervention for patients who are prone to recur.
This is a prospective, multicenter, observational, post-market clinical follow-up study in subjects treated with Bearing nsPVA Embolization Particles for uterine fibroid embolization. Data collection will include safety and performance outcome relating to the use of Bearing nsPVA, through 6 months.
The goal of this study is to assess of Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery on fibroid treatment in patients undergoing UFE.
Female fertility may be affected by uterine fibroids, although this association has not been elucidated. This retrospective cohort study aims to evaluate the impact of fibroids on women fertility.
The frequency of women presenting with a combination of uterine fibroids and pregnancy is in-creasing nowadays. Uterine fibroids in pregnancy are an unfavorable condition in themselves and being reactive to hormonal stimuli, tending to grow, can generate symptoms of different lev-els of severity. Obstetrics and gynecologists are increasingly faced with the problem of clarifying the management tactics of pregnant patients with symptomatic fibroids, who may see their preg-nancy put at risk by these masses.
Uterine fibroids, affecting 20-50% of all women ,and are benign tumors that arise from myometrial cells of the uterine smooth muscle tissue. Although most are asymptomatic, fibroids can often cause abnormal uterine bleeding, iron deficiency anemia, pelvic pressure symptoms and pain
Uterine fibroids are the most common form of benign uterine tumors in the uterine muscle layer, which had a certain rate of malignancy, but it is rare. The prevalence of uterine fibroids estimates range from 4.5% to 68.6% depending on study population and diagnostic methodology. The prevalence of fibroids has been historically underestimated by epidemiologic studies which focused mainly on symptomatic women, leaving behind a large population of asymptomatic women and women who underreport their symptoms. What investigators don't know was which women who have fibroids will develop clinical symptoms and which women who have an operation of myomectomy will relapse. The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence, incidence and risk factors for the development of uterine fibroids in Chinese women.
