Rare Medical Problem: Fibroids Seen in 1 out of 2000 Women Dealing with Large Size Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths that occur in the uterus, predominantly during a woman’s childbearing years. Statistics show that 30% of women in their childbearing years have fibroids, with the majority of cases being observed in the 30 plus age group. However, in rare instances, fibroids can also develop in younger women, such as the case of Mrs. Nalini Shah (name changed), a 30-year-old IT professional. Fibroids come in varying sizes, ranging from small seedlings to bulky masses that can distort and enlarge the uterus.
Expert Team Led by Dr. Surabhi Siddhartha Performs Lap Myomectomy to Remove Fibroid
Mrs. Nalini Shah’s journey began when a 6 cm fibroid was detected on the outer surface of her uterus during a routine scan at Motherhood Kharghar. As her pregnancy progressed, the fibroid grew to 10 cm, causing discomfort and complications. Dr. Surabhi Siddhartha and her team closely monitored the situation, providing medications and care to ensure the fibroid did not impact the pregnancy. However, during the 37th week, Mrs. Shah experienced intense pain and breathlessness, leading to an elective c-section.
The fibroid, weighing 600 grams, was successfully removed through a laparoscopic myomectomy, a procedure to remove fibroids while preserving the uterus. Dr. Ujjwal Mahajan, a gynecologist and laparoscopic surgeon, along with lead anesthetist Dr. Anita Roy, managed the intraoperative care and expertly handled any complications that arose. Thanks to the meticulous care provided by the medical team, Mrs. Shah delivered a healthy baby boy, weighing 3.5 kg.

Despite the potential risks, the expert team at Motherhood Hospitals, Kharghar ensured a successful outcome. The challenging situation was handled with great caution and expertise during the elective c-section, resulting in the safe delivery of a healthy baby.
