Pregnancy Outcomes Following Myomectomy
Italy150 participantsStarted 2024-06-28
Plain-language summary
The most prevalent genital pathology, uterine fibroids have a detrimental impact on the health of women. Fibroid symptoms are typically more impactful on females and frequently require uterine excision. Although contentious in terms of how it affects pregnancy outcomes, hysteroscopic, laparoscopic, or laparotomic myomectomy has always been a necessary and suitable procedure for the patient's health. Numerous studies have been conducted on the topic, but no clear findings have been reached.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the pregnancy outcomes after hysteroscopic, laparoscopic, laparotomic myomectomies in female patients affected by fibroids. The main questions it aims to answer are:
To investigate pregnancy outcomes in relation to surgical approach used for myomectomy.
To investigate whether pregnancy outcome is different in relation to time when myomectomy was performed: on a pregnant uterus or on a non-gravid uterus.
If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare a group of patients unsubmitted to surgery, to see the difference with the operated patients.
Participants will follow up, to evaluate the possible pregnancy complications, the intraoperative complications and other perinatal and post-operative complications.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
