AbstractA 44-year-old woman presented to the Emergency Department with abdominal pain. She had a history of fibroids and no prior surgeries. Ultrasonography and CT imaging revealed a small bowel obstruction and massive uterine fibroids.

Massive uterine fibroids is a rare cause of small bowel obstruction which requires the vigilance of Emergency Medicine physicians.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
