UTERINE FIBROID EMBOLIZATION VS FIBROID SURGERY

At Atlanta Fibroid Center, we specialize in fibroid treatment and provide a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure called uterine fibroid embolization (UFE). After this 45-minute procedure, all fibroids shrink and stop causing debilitating symptoms. UFE is a well-acknowledged and a proven alternative to surgical fibroid treatment like a hysterectomy and a myomectomy. UFE prevents risks associated with fibroid surgery while providing relief from fibroid symptoms.

UTERINE FIBROID EMBOLIZATION

The incision after UFE is shorter than an inch and can be covered with a band-aid.
BANDAID ONLY TOTAL INCISION LENGTH: <1 INCHES

CONVENTIONAL LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY

Laparoscopic fibroid surgery creates 3-4 incisions 2-inches long total.
(3-4) 5MM PORTS TOTAL INCISION LENGTH: 2 INCHES

ROBOTIC LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY

Robotic fibroid surgery creates 5 different incisions with a total length of 2-3 inches.
(2) 12MM PORTS (3) 8MM PORTS TOTAL INCISION LENGTH: 2-3 INCHES

OPEN SURGERY

Open fibroid surgery leaves a T-shape 12-inches long scar.
SINGLE LONG INCISION, HORIZONTALLY OR VERTICALLY TOTAL INCISION LENGTH: 12 INCHES

Compared to fibroid surgery, ufe is:

  • Safer
  • Less invasive
  • Less expensive
  • Much Shorter recovery
