Uterine Fibroid Embolization in a Series of Women Older Than 50 Years: An Observational Study.

Women older than 50 years, and in particular postmenopausal, are not usually considered candidate for uterine artery embolization (UAE). We reviewed the outcome of UAE in a series of women older than 50 years, who presented with different symptoms of uterus enlargement.

Aim: To examine specific hormone levels and ethnic differences in relation to hot flushes.
