The most common non-cancerous tumours in women .
The most common indication for hysterectomy.
Apparent in up to 25% of women.
More common in a higher body mass index women.
3 times more common in black American women than white
women.
Asian women have a lower incidence .
Symptoms appear at age of 30s or 40s .
The incidence increases with age up to the menopause.
Women over the age of 30 are commonly affected by fibroid
uterine.
50% of all women are affected by fibroid uterine.
Most common solid pelvic tumors.
Develop in 20 ~ 25% of women during reproductive years.
Uterine fibroids are noncancerous growths of the
uterus that often appear during childbearing years.
A benign tumors of the smooth muscle cells of the
uterus
Uterine fibroid is a leiomyoma (benign (non-
cancerous) tumor from smooth muscle tissue) that
originates from the smooth muscle layer (myometrium) of
the uterus
They can grow as a single tumor or as a cluster.

GROSS APPEARANCE
Rare only a single , usually many exist
Well-circumscribed , nonencapsulated
A pseudocapsule is present.
The consistency is usually firm or even hard except when
degeneration or hemorrhage has occurred.

Smooth muscle tumors of the uterus are often
multiple. Seen here are submucosal, intramural,
.and subserosal leiomyomata of the uterus
Microscopic Appearance
According to position
70 % Intramural
(in uterine wall)
20% Subserosal
(beneath serosa)
10 % Submucosal
( beneath endometrium )
pedunculated submucosal or
pedunculated vaginal
Cellular leiomyoma (composed of densely cellular fascicles of smooth
muscle with little intervening collagene).
Atypical leiomyoma (containing atypical cells, clustered or distributed
through the lesion).
Epithelioid leiomyoma (composed of round or poligonal cells rather than
spindle-shaped. This subtype includes leiomyoblastoma, clear cell leiomyoma,
plexyform leiomyoma).
Myxoid leiomyoma (containing abundant amorphous myxoid substance
between the smooth muscle cells).
Vascular leiomyoma (containing dense proliferations of large, caliber, thick-
walled vessels).
Lipoleiomyoma (consisting of a mixture of mature adipocytes and smooth
muscle cells).
Leiomyoma with tubules (containing tubular structures).
Benign metastasizing leiomyoma (occurrence of multiple smooth-
muscle nodules, most often located in the lung after previous hysterectomy).

and vomiting

unknown.
Family history
Genetic alterations.
Hormones.
Other growth factors:
such as insulin-like growth factor, may affect
fibroid growth.
• Half of women with fibroids have no
symptoms
• symptoms depends on their size, position
and condition

DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease
Tubo-ovarian abscess
Ovarian tumour
Uterine sarcoma
Endometrial polyps, endometrial carcinoma
Endometriosis
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding
Other causes of a pelvic mass include tumour of large
bowel, appendix abscess, diverticular abscess
Pregnancy
MEDICATIONS
NSAID.
SURGERY Antifibrinolytic agents.
Combined oral
Myomectomy contraceptive.
Hysterectomy Danazol.
GnRH agonists.
Beware of side effects including amenorrhoea,
menopausal symptoms and osteoporosis in long
term use.
Hysterectomy
healthy lifestyle
Exercise regularly.
Manage your weight.
Drink green tea or use green tea extract.
Consider changing your diet.
Understand that pregnancy and childbirth may
have protective effects against developing uterine
fibroids.
