Zusammenfassung
Die Embolisation der Arteria uterina wird als komplikationsarme, erfolgreiche Behandlung
des Uterus myomatosus gewertet. Bisher sind nur wenige schwere Komplikationen bei
geschätzt über 10 000 weltweit durchgeführten Embolisationen publiziert worden. Es
wird von einem Fall mit Abszessbildung in einem nekrotischen Myom nach Myomembolisation
mit konsekutiver Pelviperitonitis berichtet.
Abstract
Uterine artery embolisation represents a promising new method for treating uterine
fibroids with few and minor complications. Serious complications after UAE are rarely
observed. In most patients symptoms are improved and fibroid volume is reduced by
approximately 50 - 80 %. We report° an infection of necrotic uterine fibroid after
embolisation of uterine leiomyomata requiring hysterectomy.
