Sonographically guided extraction of a submucous myoma.
Under ultrasonographic guidance, a 5-cm, symptomatic submucous myoma was removed from the uterus during a second-trimester pregnancy termination. The procedure was rapid and well tolerated and suggests that intraoperative sonography may provide a transvaginal alternative to laparotomy in the treatment of submucous myomata.
