Ep 12: Uterine Morcellation for Presumed Leiomyomas
Committee Opinion #770 - Uterine Morcellation for Presumed Leiomyomas, Published February 2019 We'll cover: - leiomyosarcoma incidence and prognosis - morcellation techniques - choosing a surgical approach to myomectomy or removal of a fibroid uterus - risk and benefit discussion around risk for spread of occult leiomyosarcoma by laparoscopic power morcellation versus morbidities associated with manual morcellation or "open" surgerySHOW NOTES This episode pairs nicely with the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon from Chateau St. Jean Theme music by my main amigo, Evan Handyside
