Successful pregnancy following two-stage hysteroscopic myomectomy in women with diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis: a case report and literature review

Diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis is frequently misdiagnosed, highlighting the need to improve awareness and understanding of this rare condition. We report a case of a 29-year-old nulliparous woman presenting with menorrhagia who was diagnosed with diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis and underwent a two-stage hysteroscopic myomectomy. She subsequently conceived naturally and delivered a healthy full-term infant. In addition, we review the existing literature on diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis to enhance its diagnosis and management.

Abstract

Diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis is frequently misdiagnosed, highlighting the need to improve awareness and understanding of this rare condition. We report a case of a 29-year-old nulliparous woman presenting with menorrhagia who was diagnosed with diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis and underwent a two-stage hysteroscopic myomectomy. She subsequently conceived naturally and delivered a healthy full-term infant. In addition, we review the existing literature on diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis to enhance its diagnosis and management.
