Are ovarian fibroids serious?

For female friends, uterine fibroids and ovarian fibroids are benign tumors.

Ovarian fibroids treatment:

1. The treatment principle of benign ovarian tumors is surgical treatment. The scope of surgery can be selected according to the patient's age, fertility requirements and tumor condition: tumor resection, unilateral oophorectomy or bilateral adnexectomy, etc.

2. Malignant ovarian tumors are mainly treated with surgery, supplemented by chemotherapy or radiotherapy. In principle, the scope of surgery should include total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Patients in stage Ic and above should undergo omentectomy at the same time, and patients in stage Ic-III should undergo radical surgery, including removal of the entire uterus, bilateral adnexa, omentum, appendix, retroperitoneum, para-aortic and pelvic lymph nodes. Try to remove metastatic tumors and other affected organs. Ovarian cancer is relatively sensitive to chemotherapy and can be used before, during, or after surgery as appropriate. Combination chemotherapy is now widely used, and intraperitoneal chemotherapy has regained attention in recent years. Radiation therapy is often used as adjuvant therapy after surgery. Immunotherapy is used as one of the auxiliary treatments. The treatment and monitoring of malignant ovarian tumors are very important, and re-exploration is an important means.

Prevention: Because the cause is unknown and there are no symptoms in the early stages, early diagnosis and prevention are difficult. Improving women's self-care awareness and paying attention to regular census of women will facilitate early detection and diagnosis and treatment of this disease.
