AbstractThe most common indication for selective uterine artery angiography is embolisation of symptomatic uterine fibroids (leiomyomas or leiomyomata). It is a safe and effective treatment with worldwide acceptance and may be considered a first-line therapy for women who are finished with childbearing and interested in a minimally invasive uterine-sparing therapy, with only few relative and absolute contraindications remaining. Women interested in pregnancy may be offered embolisation, but only after careful counselling and consideration of other possibilities and patient's reasonable expectations, needs and preferences.Copyright © 2019.
