“…However, their analyses included mixed patients of variable age groups and different types of infertility. In the present prospective study, the data suggest that restoration of reproductive ability among patients with unexplained primary infertility is found to be unrelated to myoma size, number, and location, although it is well-known that such morphologic factors of submucous myomas are important for the occurrence of repeated pregnancy losses (15)(16)(17)(18)(19). In contrast, Varasteh et al (12) in his retrospective study included a control group of infertile women with a normal uterine cavity at hysteroscopy, and showed a significant benefit of removing submucous myomas of >2 cm in size.…”

“…The serum Hb was not changed significantly in terms of protruding % when the submucous myoma was <2 cm. Even though the anemia is not severe the ''wait-and-see'' approach for women has not been recommended in those who had a small submucous myoma and were of reproductive age (19). This is because uterine myomas frequently are associated with decreases in fertility (4,20), especially when there are submucous types or intracavitary component (21).…”

“…Korlátozott számban elérhetők ilyen jellegű munkák, amelyek eredményei alapján a submucosus myomák eltávolításának fertilitásjavító hatása lehet, míg az intramuralis gócok eltávolításának szükségessége még kérdé-ses [14]. A méh üregét deformáló gócok méhtükrözés során történő eltávolítása Bettocchi munkája alapján is indokoltnak tűnik [16], míg Benecke vizsgálatai alapján az intramuralis myomák eltávolítása egyértelműen javítja az asszisztált reprodukciós technikák eredményességét [17].…”
