Fibroid Treatment in India

Overview:

Fibroids affect at least 20% of all women at sometime during their life. Women aged between 30 and 50 are the most likely to develop fibroids. Overweight and obese women are at significantly higher risk of developing fibroids, compared to women of normal weight. Malignant (cancerous) growths on the smooth muscles inside the womb can develop, called leiomyosarcoma of the womb. However, this is extremely rare

What is Fibroid?

Fibroid is a non-cancerous (benign) tumors that grow from the muscle layers of the uterus (womb). They are also known as uterine fibroids, myomas, or fibromyomas. The singular of uterine fibroids is Uterine Fibroma. Fibroids are growths of smooth muscle and fibrous tissue. Fibroids can vary in size, from that of a bean to as large as a melon.

What are the Causes of Fibroids?

A fibroid starts as a single muscle cell in the uterus. For reasons that are not known, this cell changes into a fibroid tumor cell and starts to grow and multiply. Heredity may be a factor. It is thought that a muscle cell in the uterus may be "programmed" from birth to develop into a fibroid sometime perhaps many years after puberty (the start of menstrual periods). After puberty, the ovaries produce more hormones, especially estrogen. Higher levels of these hormones may help fibroids to grow, although exactly how this might happen is not understood

Symptoms of Fibroid:

The symptoms of fibroids may include:

Heavy Vaginal Bleeding: Excessively heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding is a common symptom. Women describe soaking through sanitary protection in less than an hour, passing blood clots and being unable to leave the house during the heaviest day of flow.
Pelvic Discomfort: Women with large fibroids may feel heaviness or pressure in their lower abdomen or pelvis. Often this is described as a vague discomfort rather than a sharp pain. Sometimes, the enlarged uterus makes it difficult to lie face down, bend over or exercise without discomfort.
Pelvic Pain: A less common symptom is acute, severe pain. This occurs when a fibroid goes through a process called degeneration. Usually, the pain is localized to a specific spot and improves on its own within two to four weeks. Using a pain reliever, such as ibuprofen, can decrease the pain significantly.
Low Back Pain: Rarely, fibroids press against the muscles and nerves of the lower back and cause back pain. A large fibroid on the back surface of the uterus is more likely to cause back pain than a small fibroid within the uterine wall. Because back pain is so common, it is important to look for other causes of the pain before attributing it to fibroids.
Rectal Pressure: Fibroids also can press against the rectum and cause a sensation of rectal fullness, difficulty having a bowel movement or pain with bowel movements. Sometimes, fibroids can lead to the development of a hemorrhoid.
Discomfort or Pain with Sexual Intercourse: Fibroids can make sexual intercourse painful or uncomfortable. The pain may occur only in specific positions or during certain times of the menstrual cycle. Discomfort during intercourse is a significant issue. If your doctor doesn't ask you about this symptom, make sure you mention it.

Types of Fibroid

There are four types of Fibroid

Intramural: These are located in the wall of the uterus. These are the most common types of fibroids.
Subserosal fibroids: These are located outside the wall of the uterus. They can develop into pedunculated fibroids (stalks). Subserosal fibroids can become quite large.
Submucosal fibroids: These are located in the muscle beneath the lining of the uterus wall.
Cervical fibroids: These are located in the neck of the womb (the cervix).

Diagnosis of Fibroids

In most cases, the symptoms of fibroids are rarely felt and the patient does not know she has them. They are usually discovered during a vaginal examination. The following are the tests conducted for the diagnosis of fibroids.

Ultrasound: The doctor thinks fibroids may be present; he/she may use an ultrasound scan to find out. Ultrasound can also eliminate other possible conditions which may have similar symptoms. Ultrasound scans are often used when the patient has heavy periods and blood tests have revealed nothing conclusive.
Trans-vaginal scan: A small scanner is inserted into the patient's vagina so that the uterus can be viewed close up.
Hysteroscopy: This is a small telescope that examines the inside of the uterus. During this procedure, if necessary, a biopsy can be taken of the lining of the uterus (womb).
Laparoscopy: A laparoscope is a small device that looks at the outside of the uterus - where the doctor examines its size and shape. A laparoscope is a small flexible tube. During this procedure, if necessary, a biopsy can be taken of the outer layer of the uterus.
Biopsy: A small sample of the lining of the uterus is taken and then examined under a microscope.

Types of Fibroid Treatment:

There are 6 general types of fibroid treatment. Each of these treatments listed may be used for the care and treatment of fibroids; however, there are a set of advantages and disadvantages associated with each. The following is a list of each treatment types, as well as the advantage and disadvantages that patients may face with each of them.

Magnetic Resonance Guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery: MRgFUS is an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan locates the fibroids, and then sound waves are aimed at them. This procedure also shrinks the fibroids. Most experts say Magnetic-resonance-guided percutaneous laser ablation and Magnetic-resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery are both effective - however, there is some uncertainty regarding their benefits vs. risks.
Magnetic Resonance Guided Percutaneous Laser Ablation: an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan is used to locate the fibroids. Then very fine needles are inserted through the patient's skin and pushed until they reach the targeted fibroids. A fiber-optic cable is inserted through the needles. A laser light goes through the fiber-optic cable, hits the fibroids and shrinks them.
Endometrial Ablation: This involves removing the lining of the uterus. This procedure may be used if the patient's fibroids are near the inner surface of the uterus. This procedure is considered as an effective alternative to a hysterectomy. The entire lining of the uterus (the endometrium) is removed or destroyed. The standard endometrial ablation and resection techniques are equally effective in reducing bleeding. In general, either one reduces bleeding by about half.
Myomectomy: Myomectomy is the removal of fibroids without removing the uterus. This operation preserves a woman's ability to bear children. However, a successful pregnancy is not guaranteed. Only 4 or 5 out of 10 women become pregnant and give birth after a myomectomy. Heavy bleeding can occur when the fibroids are removed. A woman is more likely to need a blood transfusion after a myomectomy than after a hysterectomy.
Hysterectomy: Hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus (and usually of the cervix as well). It is the most common treatment for fibroids. Currently, hysterectomy is the only permanent cure for fibroids. However, a woman cannot become pregnant or carry a baby after having a hysterectomy. Hysterectomy is often considered when the uterus reaches the size it would be at 12 weeks of pregnancy.
Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE): Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is a minimally invasive treatment for fibroid tumors of the uterus. The procedure is also sometimes referred to as Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE), but this term is less specific and, as will be discussed below; UAE is used for conditions other than fibroids. Nearly 90 percent of women with fibroids experience relief of their symptoms.

Advance Treatment Options for Fibroids:

The following are newer treatment options:

Embolization: This procedure shrinks fibroids by cutting off their blood supply. Guided by an X-ray image, the doctor threads a small catheter (a thin flexible tube) through a tiny incision in the groin into the main arteries that supply blood to the uterus. He or she then injects particles of inert plastic through the catheter to block these blood vessels.
Laparoscopic Surgery: Some procedures can be performed using a laparoscope, a pencil-thin surgical telescope similar to a hysteroscope. The surgeon inserts the laparoscope and tiny surgical instruments through one or more small incision in the abdomen. If the fibroids are small and easy to reach, the surgeon makes an incision in the uterus and removes them. This is called a laparoscopic myomectomy.
Hysteroscopic Resection: This procedure uses a hysteroscope, a thin telescope that is inserted through the cervix. It enables the surgeon to see inside the uterus. The surgeon may then remove the fibroids with a laser or an electrical knife, wire, or probe. No incision is made.

Preparations:

Your doctor/health practitioner should check whether you are pregnant, before he/she gives any treatment for fibroids. The fact that you have fibroids does not mean you are infertile; many women have had successful pregnancies with fibroids in their womb. Sometimes they are only diagnosed on for the first time during an ultrasound during pregnancy. When planning for fibroid treatment or surgery, whether or not it requires a stay in the hospital, several steps can be taken to prepare both you and those around you. Preparation can summed up in the following ways:

Doing things to promote health and eliminate unhealthy habits, such as cigarette smoking, recreational use of drugs, or excessive drinking of alcoholic beverages
Providing your doctor with a full personal and family health history
Deciding whether or not to donate some of your own blood for use during surgery
Preparing your home to be as convenient as possible for your recovery
Having some laboratory tests done
Eat a well balanced diet, which includes plenty of fresh foods and vitamins and minerals.
Provide the Doctor with information about all prescription and over-the-counter medications you have recently taken or are currently taking.
Ask friends or family to help out when you get home from the hospital. Check with your doctor about what you should or shouldn't eat before surgery

Post Operative Care:

Full recovery will take about 2-4 weeks. When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:

Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions.
Wear sanitary pads or napkins to absorb blood. The first menstruation after the procedure may be heavier than normal.
Try to walk often. This will decrease the risk of blood clots.
Take medicines as prescribed by your doctor. If you had to stop medicines before the procedure, ask your doctor when you can start again.
Bath or shower as normal. Gently wash the incision area with mild soap.
Ask your doctor when you will be able to:
Return to work and drive
Resume sexual activity
Resume strenuous activity (You may need to wait 2-6 weeks.)

Recovery from Fibroid Treatment:

The recovery from fibroid removal may require a hospital inpatient stay of a few days and recovery can take several weeks. The following are the recovery for Hysterectomy and Myomectomy.

Recovery from Hysterectomy: An abdominal hysterectomy involves a large incision and has a recovery time of 4 to 6 weeks. Laparoscopic and vaginal hysterectomies utilize small incisions reducing recovery time to 3 to 4 weeks. All hysterectomies require 2 to 3 day hospital stays, painkillers, potentially a catheter to assist with the passage for urine, and moving around to prevent blood clots.

Recovery from Myomectomy: Recovery time after a single, large incision myomectomy lasts about 4 to 6 weeks. Laparoscopic and vaginal myomectomies have shorter recovery times of 1 to 3 weeks. All mymectomies require 2 to 3 day hospital stays, painkillers, and moving around as quickly as possible to prevent blood clots.
