Myomectomy during the first and second trimester of pregnancy.
Myomectomy was performed on five symptomatic women in the first and second trimester of pregnancy who were resistant to medical therapy. All the patients ended theirs pregnancies without complications. Three patients of five (60%) underwent spontaneous delivery while the other two patients (40%) had cesarean section. Myomectomy during pregnancy, when necessary, is proving highly effective today.
