Can a polypoid uterine leiomyoma be removed by polypectomy?
Disease description:
I was diagnosed with a uterine leiomyoma, and I'm considering having it removed as if it were a polyp. I would like to ask: can a polypoid uterine leiomyoma be removed in the same way as a polyp?
Whether a polypoid uterine leiomyoma can be removed like a polyp depends on whether the patient has obvious symptoms. If the patient does not have significant symptoms, special treatment is not required, but regular follow-up examinations at the hospital are necessary. If the patient develops clear symptoms, surgical treatment may be considered, including procedures such as myomectomy or hysterectomy.
