Abstract

Uterine fibroids are the most common benign tumors in women. Their clinical presentation includes menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, lower abdominal pain and infertility. Treatment of uterine fibroids includes medical management, surgical resection known as myomectomy as well as minimally invasive options like uterine artery embolization.
Uterine artery embolization is a safe alternative to surgical myomectomy with low risk of complications. Awareness of the known complications of UAE may allow more rapid diagnosis and effective therapeutic responses to complications when they occur.
Patients with large uterine fibroids are more vulnerable to develop complications than patients with small and medium sized fibroids.
