Uterine artery embolization in uterine fibroids patients of reproductive age and its role in shaping of autoimmune oophoritis

Abstract

In women of the reproductive age who have preserved the uterus after uterine artery embolization (UAE) and are interested in restoring fertility, the clinical evaluation of long-term results of this treatment method was executed with the use both of a questionnaire survey (n = 98), and determination of the status of ovarian reserve, ovaries, thyroid gland(n = 52). Performed retro- and prospective clinical-laboratory and instrumental methods of the investigation allowed to reveal a higher risk of the development of remote complications of UAE, in particular in the premature failure of ovarian function.
