Summary:
Uterine fibroid are the most common benign tumor in the female reproductive system.
Although many patients with uterine fibroid do not need to be treated because they are
asymptomatic, some patients can experience compression, menorrhagia, pain, irregular
bleeding or infertility. The symptoms caused by uterine fibroid are related to its
location and size. Submucous fibroids constitute 5-10% of all uterine fibroids.The
submucous hysteromyoma is the most likely to cause symptoms, often leads to menorrhagia,
irregular bleeding or infertility.
Hysteroscopic myomectomy is a commonly used minimally invasive procedure. The submucous
myoma can be resected out by endoscopic resectoscope with electricloop (unipolar and
bipolar) . It can preserve the uterus and fertility, also effectively alleviate symptoms.
However, some specific complications have also followed,such as: hemorrhage,uterine
perforation, pneumonedema,infections,adhesions,etc. Uterine perforation occurs when the
electrode is working, there is a high risk of injury to adjacent anatomical structures.
And even without perforation, sometimes thermal injury to adjacent organs may still be
discovered in a few days after surgery.In addition,Many scholars have found that
hysteroscopic electromyectomy has a higher risk of intrauterine adhesion than other
intrauterine operations.
In order to reduce the damage caused by energy source, especially the adverse effects of
thermal damage on the endometrium, the new methods of hysteroscopic myomectomy currently
include: the hysteroscopic tissue removal (HTR) system, the cold loop myomectomy, the
Hysteroscopy Endo Operative system (HEOS),etc. Existing studies show that,These
manipulation techniques did not cause the myometrium damage by radiofrequency energy
source, greatly reducing the risk of postoperative intrauterine adhesions. The cold knife
hysteroscopic myomectomy in this study is a series of procedures using cold
instruments(mechanically, with scissor, grasping or morcellation) to remove uterine
submucosal fibroids. The purpose of this surgical technique is to make the operation safe
and effective, with greater emphasis on the anatomical and physiological integrity of the
myometrial and endometrial layers. This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of
cold knife hysteroscopic myomectomy.
