Parasitic myomas after laparoscopic myomectomy: case report.
Objective: To report a case of a woman who presented with parasitic myomas 27 months after laparoscopic myomectomy.
Methods: Case report. Methods: University medical center. Methods: A 31-year-old G0 woman who had a previous history significant for laparoscopic myomectomy with morcellation 27 months before. Methods: Repeat laparoscopic myomectomy and review of video footage from previous myomectomy. Methods: Pathology report.
Results: Repeat laparoscopic examination revealed two pedunculated and two parasitic myomas. Review of video footage from initial surgery revealed pieces of myoma dispersed within pelvis during morcellation.
Conclusions: Pieces of initial myoma dispersed within the pelvis during morcellation may have developed into parasitic myomas.
