Uterine leiomyoma, also referred to as fibroid or myoma, is a prevalent benign tumor that can present with a range of clinical manifestations. The symptoms, which vary based on the tumor's location, size, and number, include pain, constipation, urinary disturbances, and abnormal menstrual bleeding. Certain types of uterine leiomyomas, such as pedunculated subserosal myomas or large degenerating cystic myomas, may closely mimic ovarian tumors, leading to significant diagnostic and management challenges.

Objective: Hysteroscopic myomectomy is widely regarded as safe and feasible, although achieving single-session results for larger myomas often requires alternative methods. This study introduces a novel approach: ultrasound-guided myoma extirpation using ring forceps combined with hysteroscopy.
Methods: This retrospective, single-center study includes patients who underwent ultrasound-guided myoma extirpation between 2016 and 2024.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy after 2 years follow-up of transvaginal radiofrequency ablation (TVRA) to treat myomas, and to identify factors predictive of the response to the treatment.
Methods: This is a prospective cohort study of a 2-year follow-up of 65 patients who underwent TVRA for the treatment uterine fibroids at Virgen de las Nieves University Hospital in Granada, Spain. Ultrasound mean fibroid volume, symptom severity scale, total bleeding days, complications, pregnancy outcomes were recorded.

Objective: Previous studies found younger age was associated with an increased risk of hysterectomy after hysteroscopic surgeries (HS) due to abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of age on the incidence of hysterectomy after HS for treating AUB in Taiwan.
Methods: This was a nationwide population-based retrospective cohort study which utilized the Taiwan National Health Insurance Database.

Background: Both intramural myomas and thin endometrium exert a detrimental influence on the outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART). The downregulation of gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) is regarded as an effective approach to reducing the size of intramural fibroids and enhancing endometrial receptivity. Consequently, we conducted this study to assess whether the GnRH-a combined with hormone replacement therapy (GnRH-a-HRT) can improve reproductive outcomes in frozen embryo transfer cycles for patients with a thin endometrium (≤7 mm) and intramural fibroids.
