Abstract

Myoma is the most common tumor in gynecologic field. As ultrasonography because popular in antenatal care, the more cases of myoma and those adverse effects during pregnancy are more frequently detected. The management of myoma during pregnancy is conservative, but in rare circumstances, surgical intervention including myomectomy may be required. We have experienced a case of protruded subserosal myoma with the uterine cervix in midtrimester of pregnancy. The patient was managed surgically by transvaginal myomectomy and had successfully maintained pregnancy. We report a case of protruded subserosal myoma through pelvic floor in pregnancy with brief review of literatures.
