Abstract
Uterine artery embolization could be useful in the treatment of myoma, either before surgery to facilitate dissection, or totally in place of surgery. Nowadays, this technique seems attractive, considering the development of a conservative and non-invasive medicine. However the question of fertility in women of childbearing-age remains. The case of a pregnancy following uterine artery embolization is here described. All pregnancies from the literature have been reviewed and the discussion includes benefits and drawbacks of this method.Entities:
