Hysteroscopic myomectomy is a minimally invasive technique that eliminates the need for a laparotomy and is associated with lower morbidity than abdominal myomectomy. Its beneficial effects are reflected by the improvement in menstrual pattern, fertility rate, and overall patient satisfaction. It is usually performed as outpatient surgery but occasionally requires an overnight stay. Most patients return to full activity within 48 hours. To exploit the full potentials of this procedure, appropriate case selection and surgical expertise are essential. It should be considered as first-line conservative surgical therapy for the management of symptomatic intracavitary fibroids.
