PURPOSE: To evaluate the results of uterine artery embolization (UAE) for symptomatic uterine leiomyoma by use of porous gelatin particles (PGP) in comparison with conventional hand-cut gelatin sponge particles.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred and fifteen consecutive patients who had undergone UAE were retrospectively assessed. The first 64 patients were treated with hand-cut gelatin sponge and the last 51 with PGP. Extent of infarction, volume reduction of the dominant leiomyoma on magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, and change in symptoms were assessed.
RESULTS: UAE was successfully performed for all patients. No major complications were observed. MR images one month after UAE showed that the mean extent of infarction of the dominant leiomyoma was 97 % for patients treated with PGP and 96 % for those treated with hand-cut gelatin sponge. Volume reductions of the dominant leiomyoma after 3, 6, 12, and 24 months were, respectively, 45, 56, 62, and 66 % for use of PGP and 45, 57, 63, and 68 % for use of hand-cut gelatin sponge. Symptoms including heavy menstrual bleeding, heavy menstrual pain, and abdominal heaviness had improved by 95-100 % at 12 months. There was no difference between the two groups.
CONCLUSION: UAE with PGP is safe, and as effective as conventional gelatin sponge particles.
