[Cervical isthmus myomatosis].
Ten patients with isthmico-cervical leiomyoma as the only one localization, were surgically treated, from Jan, 1989 to May, 1990. It was 2.8% of all treated myomatosis. Average age was 42.4 years, with gestation of 1.1 per patients. Nine cases were treated by the abdominal via. One case presented with a recurrence. These cases represent a technico-surgical difficulty, due to tumor localization and size, as well as an ample knowledge about pelvic structures, in order to avoid digestive tract lesions, urinary and vascular. The present series confirms that this type of surgery is justified considering morbi-mortality, so it would be possible a definite histopathological evaluation.
