Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of bilateral uterine artery ligation for treating symptomatic uterine fibroids in women.
- Pre-operative and follow-up measurements (over three years) were taken to assess changes in fibroid and uterine volumes, menstrual pain, hemoglobin levels, and patient satisfaction.
- Results showed significant reductions in fibroid and uterine volumes, along with improved hemoglobin levels and patient satisfaction, establishing the procedure as a safe and effective treatment option, especially in areas with limited medical resources.
