الأورام الليفية في جانجنام
What Are Uterine Fibroids?
الأورام الليفية الرحمية (المعروفة أيضًا بالأورام الليفية أو الأورام الليفية العضلية) هي أورام حميدة تتكون من أنسجة عضلية وليفية. تختلف في الحجم والعدد، وتُصنف حسب موقعها:
- Intramural Fibroids: Grow within the uterine wall
- Subserosal Fibroids: Grow on the outer wall of the uterus
- Submucosal Fibroids: Protrude into the uterine cavity
- Pedunculated Fibroids: Attached to the uterus by a thin stalk
While many women with fibroids experience no symptoms, others may suffer from:
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
- Pelvic pain or pressure
- Frequent urination
- Constipation
- الألم أثناء ممارسة الجنس
- Difficulty getting pregnant or recurrent miscarriages
Diagnosis of Fibroids in Korea
Gangnam clinics are equipped with top-tier imaging tools to provide accurate diagnosis, including:
- Pelvic Ultrasound (transvaginal or abdominal): Most common initial test
- MRI: For detailed mapping, especially prior to surgery
- Hysteroscopy: Direct visualization of the uterine cavity
- Sonohysterography: Saline-infused ultrasound for better internal imaging
Doctors will assess fibroid size, number, and location to determine the best treatment strategy.
Treatment Options for Fibroids in Korea
Treatment depends on your symptoms, fertility plans, age, and the size/location of the fibroids. Gangnam clinics offer both non-surgical and surgical options:
Non-Surgical Treatments
- الأدوية: يمكن للعلاجات الهرمونية مثل ناهضات GnRH (على سبيل المثال، لوبرون) أن تقلص الأورام الليفية مؤقتًا
- IUD with progestin: Helps control heavy bleeding
- MRI-Guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS): Non-invasive technique using ultrasound waves to destroy fibroid tissue
الخيارات الجراحية قليلة التدخل
- قسطرة الشريان الرحمي (UAE): تمنع تدفق الدم إلى الأورام الليفية، مما يؤدي إلى انكماشها
- Laparoscopic Myomectomy: Removes fibroids while preserving the uterus—suitable for women who want children
- Hysteroscopic Myomectomy: Removes fibroids from inside the uterine cavity
- Abdominal Myomectomy: Open surgery for large or numerous fibroids
- Hysterectomy: Complete removal of the uterus—recommended when other treatments fail or fertility is no longer a concern
