Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure performed by an interventional radiologist to shrink fibroids and relieve symptoms without surgery. It is an excellent alternative to hysterectomy or myomectomy for women seeking uterus-preserving treatment. Like angiography of the heart, here we do angiography of your uterus and selectively block the arteries supplying the fibroid resulting in shrinking of its size.

Indications for UFE

✅ Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding due to fibroids
✅ Pelvic pain, pressure, or bloating caused by large fibroids
✅ Frequent urination or constipation due to fibroid pressure
✅ Women wanting to avoid surgery or preserve fertility
✅ Fibroids not responding to medications

Procedure Details

1. Preparation: The procedure is performed under local anesthesia with light sedation for comfort.
2. Guided Access: A small catheter is inserted into an artery, usually through the wrist or groin.
3. Embolization: Using real-time X-ray (fluoroscopy), tiny particles are injected into the arteries supplying the fibroids, cutting off their blood supply.
4. Completion: As the fibroids shrink over time, symptoms gradually improve. The procedure takes about 60-90 minutes, and most patients go home either the same day or the next day.

Benefits of UFE
