“…Both antepartum and caesarean myomectomy can be considered a safe option with minimal or no further risk of recurrence of myomas. [18][19][20] There are still challenges when it comes to antepartum myomectomy since it depends on site and placental location. 21,22 In some cases myomectomy and removal of fetus through the same incision.…”

Myomas are common in pregnancy and can go unnoticed. One in ten patients, however, develops complications that would necessitate their removal. Myomectomy performed at caesarian section had come to the lime light over the last decade and recent literature have shown its safety. There is still paucity of literature on myomectomy performed during pregnancy. Our case was a 25 years old primigravida at 21 weeks with features of acute abdomen secondary to uterine fibroid which was diagnosed during pregnancy. She subsequently had antepartum myomectomy and a live birth at term via caesarean section.

Leiomyomas are the most common benign tumors with an incidence of 2 to 4% of the reproductive tract in women of childbearing age. Myomectomy is the most common surgical operation performed. In a study that reviewed 10 years of experience in doing myomectomy during the cesarian section, about 0.89% had myomectomy. Although the Cesarian myomectomy rate is currently increasing, many doctors are reluctant to perform Cesarian myomectomy, due to potential associated risks, particularly the perioperative hemorrhage. It has been documented that a single CM is associated with a higher rate of bleeding when the leiomyoma diameter is more than 75 mm. We reported the case of a 26-year primigravida at 38 weeks of gestation who presented with prevaginal leaking and pain abdomen. We found it to have a huge mass over the posterior wall. A Cesarian myomectomy was performed. Histopathologically it was proven to be a fibroid uterus.
