Hysterectomy
Surgical removal of the uterus, which eliminates benign neoplasms of the uterine corpus. This is the definitive treatment and prevents recurrence. May be performed abdominally, vaginally, or laparoscopically.
Hormonal Therapy
Treatment using progestins or GnRH agonists to reduce tumor size and control symptoms by altering hormonal stimulation of the endometrial tissue.
Additional treatment options
Uterine Artery Embolization
Minimally invasive procedure that blocks blood flow to the tumor, causing it to shrink. Performed by interventional radiology using catheter-based techniques.
procedureWatchful Waiting
Regular clinical and imaging follow-up for small, asymptomatic benign neoplasms that do not require immediate intervention. Includes periodic ultrasound evaluation.
