Vaginal myoma expulsion after NovaSure endometrial ablation.
A 46-year old multiparous woman visited a 1-stop clinic for abnormal uterine bleeding. There was a small submucosal type 2 myoma of 2 cm in her normal sized uterus. We treated her using Novasure endometrial ablation. One year later the patient suffered from sudden excessive vaginal bleeding and collapse. A myoma of 4 cm was being expelled from the uterus.
