Surgical Intervention for Fibroids in Pregnancy: A Case Report

A 31-year-old primigravida presented to us with intractable low abdominal pain arose from uterine fibroids for 7 days that affected her daily life at 13 weeks of pregnancy. She failed NSAID treatment. Instead, it was worsening that vomiting and fever developed. We performed antepartum myomectomy after thorough explanation of the risk of excessive blood loss, spontaneous pregnancy loss to her. The subsequent prenatal period was uneventful with a scheduled cesarean section delivery of a baby at 39 weeks.
