Abstract
Uterine fibroids has been and remains the most common gynecological disorder. In terms of its incidence, uterine fibroids diagnosis is second only to inflammatory diseases of the genitals. However, knowing that the latter is confirmed only in one third of patients, we insist on the priority of fibroids, which is evidenced by the statistics: leiomyoma is found in 20--40% of women of reproductive age [1].
