Patient's question:
My mom had surgery today for multiple uterine fibroids. She was afraid the disease would lead to the removal of her uterus. Before the surgery, she underwent thorough examinations, and there were no signs of cancer. A pathology test also did not indicate malignancy. The doctor said the same thing. However, after today's surgery, a frozen section revealed some purulent changes, and now it's uncertain. We have to wait for the results of the final pathology to know if it's malignant. Has anyone heard of such cases? Could it worsen?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids have benign tumors. Moreover, your mother has already had her uterus removed. The recurrence of abscess formation in fibroids is because if the fibroids grow too large, the blood circulation cannot reach them, which can lead to recurrent cerebral edema and abscess formation. Some recurrent fibroids may also have internal bleeding, leading to recurrence and red degeneration. Additionally, during the treatment of uterine fibroids, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. Patients must pay close attention to their diet and eat more light foods to avoid unnecessary harm.
