Myomectomy during pregnancy

Obioha Okoro1, Stephen Onwere2

ABSTRACT

Uterine fibroids may be encountered with pregnancy and many obstetricians will inevitably confront the dilemma of how best to manage fibroids causing complications in a gravid uterus. We describe two cases of unavoidable caesarean myomectomy and myomectomy performed for the management of complications during pregnancy.

KEY WORDS: Uterine, Fibroid, Caesarean Section, Myomectomy, Pregnancy.
