Patient's question:
I have uterine fibroids, why do I need a careful examination of both internal jugular veins and both common carotid arteries?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, you have uterine fibroids. You have undergone a thorough examination of both internal jugular veins and both common carotid arteries. It is possible that the doctor wants to use arterial embolization surgery to treat the uterine fibroids. The arterial catheter will be inserted into the uterine artery and infused with permanent embolic particles. This will cut off the blood supply to the uterine fibroid, causing it to swell with cerebral edema for a long time and eventually disappear. In addition to treating the uterine fibroids, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
