Description
Dinsa, Eticha, and Terefe report fibroid removal during pregnancy in twenty twenty-four. A twenty year old first time pregnant woman came in with lower abdominal pain and slight fever. Ultrasound found a fibroid of four by four centimetres attached broadly to the uterus. Such tumors are common in women of childbearing age.
Antibiotics did not ease her pain, so the team chose surgery after counselling. The operation was done in the second trimester at a hospital in western Ethiopia. Surgeons removed the fibroid without manipulating the uterus itself. Mother and fetus stayed safe after the procedure. She continued antenatal care at the same hospital into the third trimester. The authors note prenatal fibroid removal can be done safely in early pregnancy.
