Objective: We report a rare case of acute abdomen pain in 27 weeks´ gestation caused by a perforated leiomyoma mimicking pseudomyxoma peritonei on magnetic resonance imaging.
Subject: Case report.
Setting: 1st Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics. Faculty of Medicine, Comenius University in Bratislava, Slovakia.
Case Report: In our reported case report of perforated leiomyoma mimicking pseudomyxoma peritonei on magnetic resonance imaging. Successful myomectomy was done, and the pregnancy continued with good outcome. At week 40, the patient underwent caesarean section.
Conclusion: Uterine fibroids in pregnancy can lead to severe complications. Their spontaneous rupture in pregnancy is very rare. To manage acute abdominal pain in pregnancy a good diagnostic must be performed, and surgical treatment should be carefully considered.

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.

For gastric leiomyomas measuring ≥5 cm, endoscopic resection is necessary. The larger size of these tumors significantly impairs the resection field of view, increasing the risk of intraoperative bleeding and perforation and potentially leading to incomplete tumor removal. The combination of dental floss and tissue clip traction techniques is commonly used for resecting mucosal lesions but is rarely reported for submucosal tumors.
