Surgical Management of Prolapsed Pedunculated Submucous Leiomyoma in a Virgin Woman

Abstract

Leiomyomas, or fibroids, are the most common benign tumors of the uterus. Pedunculatedsubmucous myomas usually cause menstrual irregularities but rarely labor like pain throughdilating the cervix and prolapsing through it with possible avulsion of the twisted necroticprolapsed portion.We present a case of pedunculated submucous myoma, mimicking cervical leiomyoma in a 30year old unmarried virgin woman. She complained of occasional lower abdominal distentionand menstrual dysfunction. The submucous pedunculated myoma was removed by laparotomy..Prolapsed pedunculated leiomyomas of the uterus can best be managed by simple vaginalmyomectomy. Cases like our patient can be difficult to manage because of not allowing vaginalexcision
