Prognosis of subsequent pregnancy in uterine necrosis after uterine artery embolization.

In an 8-year period at two medical center, 138 patients underwent uterine artery embolization, and 11 of them were diagnosed with uterine necrosis. Among them, three were successfully conceived. However, one of them developed an arteriovenous malformation after an artificial abortion, and another experienced complications, including placenta previa and placenta accreta spectrum, which resulted in early preterm delivery and recurrent postpartum hemorrhage, necessitating subtotal hysterectomy. Therefore, it is crucial to prepare for potential adverse pregnancy outcomes in subsequent pregnancies for patients with a history of uterine necrosis.
