Doctors Remove 11 Mega-Fibroids from Woman's Uterus
Doctors in Hyderabad successfully removed 11 very large, non-cancerous growths called fibroids from a young woman's uterus.
These fibroids were very big, weighing a total of 2.7 kg, which is like carrying a small child in her tummy.
Normally, doctors would have to make a big cut to remove such large fibroids, but this team used tiny cuts and special tools to take them out.
This way, the woman won't have big scars and can still have babies in the future.
The doctors used a special map made by a machine called MRI to guide them during the surgery.
The woman is now doing well and went home after the surgery.
Surgeons at Rainbow Hospital in Hyderabad removed 11 large uterine fibroids weighing 2.7 kg from a 26-year-old woman.
The fibroids were removed using advanced laparoscopic surgery, a minimally invasive technique typically not used for such large fibroids.
The patient's uterus had expanded to the size of an eight-month pregnancy due to the fibroids.
The surgical team aimed to preserve the patient's fertility by avoiding traditional open surgery, which can cause extensive scarring.
The patient has recovered well and was discharged, with her uterine integrity maintained for future childbearing.
