Parasitic myomas after laparoscopic myomectomy: case report

Parasitic leiomyomas: a systematic review

“…In our review, there were 14 cases in which the blood supply to the leiomyoma was provided by the omentum, this location being the most common after DPL 42,44,54,55,56,61,63,91,92,93,94,95,96 Diagnosis and differential diagnosis…”

Bowel resection for iatrogenic parasitic fibroids with preoperative investigations suggestive of malignancy

“…It then develops a secondary blood supply via that adhesion and finally goes on to lose its uterine blood supply (1). Parasitic fibroids after morcellation during laparoscopic myomectomy or laparoscopic hysterectomy are now well recognized (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6). It is thought that fragments left behind in the peritoneal cavity then grow on surrounding structures.…”

Parasitic leiomyomas: two case reports and review of literature

“…Kang et al [5] reported a case of retroperitoneal leiomyoma but this was thought to be of primary origin rather than parasitic. Several cases of parasitic leiomyoma after laparoscopic myomectomy have also been reported [6,7].…”
