OBJECTIVE: To describe a successful pregnancy after a change in configuration of the endometrial cavity after magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) for leiomyomas. DESIGN: Case report. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT: A 40-year-old woman with known leiomyomas and a history of secondary infertility. INTERVENTION: Magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery treatment of two intramural myomas, one with a significant submucosal component. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Change in conformation of the uterine cavity. RESULT(S): A viable intrauterine pregnancy, with full-term uneventful labor and vaginal delivery. CONCLUSION(S): Magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery changed the configuration of the endometrial cavity, and a subsequent pregnancy resulted in a term delivery.
