Özet

Uterine myoma is the most common benign gynecologic pathology and the most common indication for hysterectomy. Parasitic myoma is a very rare subclass of this pathology. The frequency of parasitic myomas is unknown. Although several theories proposed for the etiology of spontaneous parasitic myoma, currently it appears as an increasing complication of laparoscopic morcellation of uterus or myoma. Thus, these are named as iatrogenic parasitic myomas. The treatment of parasitic myomas can be very difficult due to vascular and adjacent organ involvement such as mesentery and bowels. In this case report we aimed to present a case of spontaneous parasitic myoma in a patient without history of uterine surgery and , examine the possible etiologies and prevention techniques of parasitic myomas with a review of the literature. © 2017 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
