Pregnancy and natural delivery following magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery of uterine myomas

Yonsei Med J. 2010 May;51(3):451-3. doi: 10.3349/ymj.2010.51.3.451.

Abstract

This report discusses a pregnancy case following a series of two consecutive magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS) procedures for the treatment of two different myomas in an individual patient. Both procedures were completed without adverse events, and the patient conceived naturally four months after treatment. At 39 weeks, she gave birth to a healthy baby girl, via a vaginal delivery. There were no complications in the pregnancy or during labor.
