Fibroids Malignant

Malignant fibroids are a tumor disease that can develop from the muscle tissue of the uterus in women. This type of fibroid is also known as uterine or limbomovaginal leiomyocarcinoma. Clinical manifestations are the presence of nodes in the uterus or tumor-like formations in the vagina and intestines. Fibroids can be benign or malignant, and the latter is the most dangerous form of the disease. In this article we will talk about the causes of fibroids, their symptoms and treatment.

Causes of occurrence Myoma is a tumor that grows from the muscle cells of the uterus. The cause of the disease may be hormonal imbalance, metabolic disorders and heredity. Another possible cause is external factors and mechanical damage to the uterus. Symptoms of fibroids may manifest differently depending on the form of the disease. Benign fibroids manifest themselves in the form of heavy bleeding after menstruation, as well as an increase in the size of the uterus. Malignant, on the contrary, can occur without visible symptoms and appear only during examination.

The danger of fibroids

Myoma can be compared to a “time bomb”, the consequences of which can be quite serious. For example, if you have a small fibroid, then it is unlikely to lead to bad consequences. However, if the fibroid begins to grow too quickly or becomes malignant. In this case, the following complications are possible: • Infectious diseases • Uterine bleeding • Anemia • Infertility • Cancer • Internal bleeding If a disease is detected, you must contact a specialist - a gynecologist. He will conduct an examination and make a diagnosis. Treatment depends on the form of the disease and its stages. If the fibroid is benign, then a surgical method may be used, and if it is malignant, then chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy will be prescribed. It is worth noting that you should not self-medicate, especially when it comes to cancer. Any treatment is prescribed by a specialist based on tests and visual examination.
