Abstract

Uterine fibroids are benign neoplastic growth arising from the myometrium, with estimated incidence being 20-40%. They are a major cause of morbidity in women of reproductive age group. The gold standard diagnostic modality for uterine fibroids appears to be gray-scale ultrasonography, with magnetic resonance imaging being a close second option in complex clinical circumstances. The management of uterine fibroids can be approached medically, surgically, and even by minimal access techniques. Here we are reporting a case of myomectomy with removal of 65 fibroids and conserving the uterus for future fertility.
