The Frequency of Endometriosis in Women with Pelvic Pain and Large Leiomyomata Uteri
Between April 1989 and February 1996 pelviscopy was performed to evaluate 65 patients with pelvic pain and findings consistent with large leiomyomata uteri. The principal findings in 55 women (84.60%) were a mass of 19 weeks' size and endometriosis. Endometriosis should be considered in women with large leiomyomata uteri who complain of pelvic pain.
