“…However, hysterectomy is a more radical surgical procedure than is myomectomy and it is refused by some patients. The high rate of recurrence of symptoms (15-25% of cases) following myomectomy limits its use 3,4 . This emphasizes the need for an alternative method providing definitive treatment without adverse effects.…”

“…20 Postoperative pain control has been shown to be very good from the various reviews indicating clear advantages over the open conventional type of myomectomy. 13,14,18 The time taken to recovery is also short following laparoscopic myomectomy. This clearly is an advantage to the patient and the surgeon.…”

“…Así también, aunque observamos un menor requerimiento de analgesia con opiáceos y una menor estadía hospitalaria en pacientes operadas por laparoscopia, las diferencias se minimizan o desaparecen cuando se comparan miomas que miden menos de 5 cm. Estos resultados contrastan con los resultados de algunas series internacionales en donde se demuestra los beneficios de la laparoscopia en términos de dolor postoperatorio, pérdidas hemáticas, estadía hospitalaria y tiempo de recupe-ración (4,7,8,(11)(12)(13)(14)(15).…”

“…Algunos autores definen la vía de abordaje de acuerdo el número de miomas presentes. En esos trabajos se opta por la laparotomía si el número supera los 2 a 4 miomas (8,20,21) o se basan en el diámetro del mioma más grande, inclinándose por la laparotomía si el mioma excede los 6 (8,22) a 10 cm (21). Dubuisson y cols (23), definieron establecer un modelo predictivo para el riesgo de conversión, incluyendo 4 factores: mioma de tamaño mayor a 5 cm a la ultrasonografía (OR 10,3; IC 95%: 2,8-37,9); localización intramural (OR: 4,3; IC 95%: 1,3-14,5), un mioma localización anterior (OR 3,4; IC 95%: 1,3-9,0) y el uso preoperatorio de agonistas de GNRH (OR: 5,4; IC 95%: 2,0-14,2).…”
