| Core Tip |
Microwave endometrial ablation may be ineffective in menorrhagia with uterine myomas. Combining transcervical resection and endometrial ablation can help reduce the tumor volume, and cauterization can ensure the effectiveness of this procedure. This can facilitate the pathological evaluation of the excised specimen. The therapeutic effect of this method is considered to be a reduction in the number of uterine myomas. Furthermore, patient satisfaction with this surgical procedure is high. |
