Removing a uterine fibroid weighing more than 1kg from a 50-year-old woman's body

(Baonghean.vn) - Doctor Thai Hai Dang - Director of Tan Ky District General Hospital said that this unit has just successfully performed laparoscopic surgery on a case of large uterine fibroids, a rare occurrence to date.

At 8am on November 30, Tan Ky District General Hospital admitted patient Tran Thi Trieu, 50 years old, Nghia Hop Commune, Tan Ky with symptoms of heavy vaginal bleeding and severe abdominal pain. Doctors diagnosed the patient with “Hemorrhage due to uterine fibroids”.

Doctors performed laparoscopic surgery to remove a fibroid weighing over 1kg.

After consultation, the hospital doctors performed endoscopic surgery, successfully removing a tumor weighing over 1 kg. Currently, the patient's health is relatively stable, and he is expected to be discharged next week.

Dr. Thai Hai Dang added: This is a large fibroid tumor, rare, so surgery to remove the tumor is very difficult. A few years ago, cases like this often had to be transferred to a higher level. But with the efforts of the medical team, the surgery was successful beyond expectations./.
