 INTRODUCTION
Uterine myoma is the most common tumors of
the female genitalia tract. Myoma commonly called
fibroid. It is the benign tumor of the smooth muscle in
the wall of the uterus. Hysterectomy has been a
common therapy in patients who have completed
reproduction. Total hysterectomy plus unilateral
salphingo oophorectomy TAHBSO- this procedure
removes the utereus, cervix, one ovary and one
fallopian tube, while one ovary and one fallopian tube
are left in places.
Fibroids can be present and be apparent. However
they are clinically apparent in up to 25 % of the
women. Although, myoma is generally considered to
be slowly growing tumor in 20-40% of women at the
age of 35 and more have uterine fibroids of
significant sizes with severe clinical symptoms.
Moreover, myoma can be relapse in 7-28% of patient
after surgical treatment and in certain case it may
even turn to malignant tumor, this could causes
significant morbidity including prolonged or heavy
menstrual bleeding, pelvic pleasure and pain and in
rare cases reproductive dysfunction. Myoma affects
one of every four women ¾ of woman with this
condition,however, experience no symptoms.
Uterine myoma is developing on the background of hyper
estrogen, progesterone, deficits in hyper gonodotrophine.
The majority of the researches say that the growth of
myoma depends on concentration of cystosolic receptors to
the sex hormones and their interactions, with the endrogen
or extrogen hormones. In accordance to clinical
observations, it can be admitted that both growth and
regressions of myoma are estrogen-dependent, is the tumor
size gets increased during pregnancy and is regressed after
menopause. The only that needs to clear is to find out
whether it is decreased in receptors numbers of estrogen,
progesterone and androgen- hormones quantities which
lead to regression in myoma size ( regarding androgen there
is an hypothesis that myoma is sensitive to androgen ) for
growth that formed tumors, the need to be further supported
by negative factors.
Abortions, long term used of inadequate contraceptive
pills, chronic sub-acute and acute inflammation of uterus
or its appendices, stress, ultraviolet radiation, cystic
formation of ovary etc. for example, the woman who had
ten abortions by the age of thirty have double to
developed uterine myoma at fourty years old. In fact,
uterine myoma = account for 20% of 650,000
hysterectomies performed annually in the U.S interest in
the uterine preservation and organ preserving surgery
through techniques minimally invasive surgery has
increased the first reports of laparoscopic myomectomy.

Present condition started about 6 years prior to

admission. When patient noted heavy vaginal bleeding and
body weakness every menstrual period that last almost a

per orem temporarily. The patient was instructed to lie flat on bed
and low back rest for pneumonia precaution. Oxygen inhalation
administered at 3 liters per minute. Suction secretion when
necessary. Intake and output were recorded hourly. 5% Dextrose
Lactated Ringers 1 liter post-op to run at 15gtts/min then to
follow 5% Dextrose Lactated Ringers 1 liter at same rate. Last
dose of Cefuroxime to consumed, Metronidazole 500 mg slow
intravenous push every 6 hours. Tramadol 500 mg after negative
skin testing every 6 hour. Intravenous fluid regulated at 30
gtts/min when blood transfusion finished. Repeat hemoglobin
and hematocrit.
At 5:20 p.m. the operation ended and at 6:40 p.m. patient was
bought to the intensive care unit and hooked to ventilator and
Furosemide 40 mg IV was given. At around 8:45 p.m
Omeprazole 40 mg IV was given. Serum, sodium, potassium,
chloride, prothrombin time, partial prothrombin time done and
result in “Lady L” was nebulized if Combivent 1 neb and
maintained every 8 hours potassium 30 millequivalent
incorporate to her intravenous fluid and decrease it to 8 hours.
Another one unit of packed red blood cell, Calcium gluconate
one ampule was given thru slow intravenous push.
 Day 4
August 25, 2008, 5a.m. patient was brought to room 206 and then
nebulization started and extubated at the time and secretion
suctioned. Oxygen maintained at 4 liters per minutes via nasal
canula. Diphenhydramine one ampule was given at 3:30 p.m, 30
minutes prior to blood transfusion. Blood type “B” with a serial #
of BO8-445 run at 4-6 hours. At 6:05 p.m “Lady L” was
confirmed that she is positive in flatulence and may sips of water
and hot soup. Measuring drained output was recorded shiftly.
 Day 5
1 a.m. of August 26, 2008, to follow intravenous fluid 5%
Dextrose Lactated Ringers 1 liter regulated at same rate and
encouraged patient to turn side to side. Serum, creatinine, and
complete blood count done. At 9:37 a.m. the physician advised to
continue medications. At 10:00 p.m. patients temperature is
38.2˚C and paracetamol 200 mg one ampule was given thru
intravenous. At 11:03 a.m. nebulization was stopped. The
physician suggests changing Cefuroxime to Tazocin 4.5 grams
intravenous every 8 hours. Above intravenous fluid consumed
and followed up of 5% Dextrose in Lactated Ringers 1 liter
regulated at same rate. At 3:15 p.m. incentive spirometer every 8
hours and two minutes oxygen inhalation was discontinued.
Patient was encouraged to ambulate. At 8:30 p.m. intravenous to
follow of 5% Dextrose Lactated Ringers 1 liter regulated at same
rate. Foley catheter was removed at 9:15 p.m. At 10:45 p.m
“Lady L” was gargled a one tablespoon of Orahex solution plus
30 cc water every 6 hours.
 Day 6
Nursing care done. Vital signs are monitored and recorded.
Intravenous fluid regulated at 15 gtts/min “Lady L” has no
further complaint. The patient is ambulatory. Tazocin 4.5 grams
intravenous every 8 hours was given. Attending Physician did not
visit’s the patient and no new orders were made that day.
 Day 7
August 28, 2008, patient may have clear liquid then soft diet at 4
p.m., above intravenous fluid consumed and followed up of 5%
Dextrose Lactated Ringers 1 liter regulated at the same rate. For
possible discharge on the next day.

Day 8
August 29, 2008, removal of jackson-pratt drain was done and
intravenous fluid was terminated. There is no o objection for
discharge. Home medications instructed and patient may go
home and start oral medication. At 8 p.m. patient was discharged
accompanied by her son via the wheelchair.

Transabdominal pelureus shows an enlarged uterus measure

about 12.6x7.5x9.1 cm (LxWxAP). There is a large hypo echoic
mass in the posterior lower segment of the uterus, measuring
approximately 10.0x10.0x9.0 cm.
There is a cystic structure with internal echoes and septations in
the night adnexae, measuring about 60x4.5x4.3 cm.
There is no fluid in the posterior culde-sac.
