“…Reasons cited include the limited evidence for the long-term success of UAE, a possible impairment of fertility and premature menopause, and the radiation exposure associated with the procedure. Data from several clinical studies with follow-up periods of up to 10 years suggest that UAE provides long-term control of fibroid-related symptoms in the vast majority of patients with an acceptable reintervention rate [1][2][3][4][5]. Comparative studies have shown UAE to be at least equal to surgical treatment in clinical and economic terms [6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

UFE is generally performed to relief symptoms of fibroids such as heavy menstrual bleeding, pain, and bulk-related symptoms.…”

We report a case of a 20-week pregnant woman, who underwent embolisation of a cervical fibroid to end a life-threatening massive bleeding. This is the first reported case in the literature of a super-selective uterine fibroid embolisation (UFE) in a pregnant woman, even though pregnancy is considered an absolute contraindication for UFE. This rare case demonstrates that UFE can be safely performed during pregnancy providing an excellent short- and long-term clinical outcome for both mother and child.
