| Core Tip |
Diffuse uterine leiomyomatosis (DUL) is a benign uterine smooth muscle neoplasm with unknown etiology. Hysterectomy is the only curative therapy. We report a 27-year-old female with no sexual activity who was diagnosed with DUL. The patient was misdiagnosed with leiomyoma preoperatively, followed by treatment with transabdominal myomectomy (TM), a gonadotropin-releasing hormone analog, and hysteroscopic myomectomy plus hymen repair. This case highlights the importance of pelvic magnetic resonance imaging as a diagnostic tool. For women who want to preserve fertility, conservative surgery should be an option. When TM is chosen, a modified new myomectomy should be considered to avoid the drawbacks of traditional TM. |
