Objective: To compare the surgical results of transendometrial myomectomy (TEM) and conventional myomectomy (CM) procedures for fibroid in cesarean section.

Material And Methods: This retrospective study was conducted with computer-based medical records of patients who underwent myomectomy during cesarean section between January 2013 and March 2019. During the study period, 41 patients underwent transendometrial myomectomy, and 52 patients with had conventional myomectomy. In all patients included in the study, myoma was single, intramural, and localized in the anterior of the uterus.

Results: The total duration of surgery was shorter in the TEM group than in the CM group (50,5 ± 10 min vs 63,6 ± 15,2, p = 0,001). There was no difference in terms of length of hospital stay, procedure-related hemoglobin difference, blood transfusion requirement and postoperative fever (respectively, p = 0,65, p = 0,81, p = 0,33 and p = 0,9). Patients who underwent TEM (0.58 ± 0.61) had significantly lower adhesion scores in their subsequent pregnancy compared to patients who underwent CM (1,76 ± 1,1) (p = 0,001).

Conclusion: Transendometrial myomectomy technique seems to be more advantageous in selected patients compared to the conventional technique due to the shorter operation time.

Objectives: The safety of cesarean myomectomy has been proven by previous studies. Our study aimed to reveal the long-term perinatal, obstetric, and surgical outcomes of cesarean myomectomy (CM) by comparing different CM techniques.

Material And Methods: This retrospective multicentric case-control study involved 7 hospitals and included 226 singleton pregnancies that underwent repeated cesarean section (CS) between 2015 and 2020.

Up to 70-80% of women of reproductive age may be affected with the most common uterine tumors, known as fibroids or myomas. These benign tumors are the second most prevalent cause of surgery among premenopausal women. Predictions show that the occurrence of myomas in pregnancy will increase, and that the risk of having myomas during pregnancy increases with advanced maternal age.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of cesarean myomectomy (CM) trans-endometrial approach in pregnant women with single intramural fibroid in the posterior uterine wall.

Methods: Ninety-eight patients with single intramural fibroids in the posterior uterine wall who underwent CM were divided into two groups depending on surgical style. The study group consisted of 50 patients who underwent trans-endometrial myomectomy (EM), whereas the control group included 48 patients who had trans-serosal myomectomy (SM).
