Myoma Praevia in a Pregnancy Carried to Term : A Case Report and Updated Review of the Literature
Authors/Creators
Description
The fibroleiomyomatous uterine pathology is
frequent and the relationships between myomas and
pregnancies are three fold: fibroids can prevent concep-
tion and implantation; fibroids can complicate the evolu-
tion of pregnancy, delivery and postpartum; and the
gravidic state can facilitate the evolution of fibromyomas
towards complications.
We report the case of a patient who was followed in
our training from 19SA+1d whose ultrasound showed an
interstitial isthmic myoma praevia and an evolving pre-
gnancy. Through our case and with the support of the
literature, we will insist on the complications that can
occur and understand the interest of early diagnosis and
management of this entity.
