Does UFE treat all fibroid sizes?
Fibroids can vary greatly in size; from as small as a pea to as large as a grapefruit. While smaller fibroids are usually asymptomatic, larger fibroids can lead to debilitating symptoms that significantly affect quality of life. Uterine Fibroid Embolisation (UFE) is a minimally invasive treatment that works for any size fibroid. UFE is conducted via a tiny incision in the wrist, where a microcatheter is guided to the blood vessels supplying the fibroids. Tiny particles are injected to block blood flow, and by starving them of blood supply, the targeted fibroids begin to shrink and disappear. If you think UFE might be the solution for you, please visit our website for more information.
