Fibromiomas e preservação da fertilidade

Fibromiomas e preservação da fertilidade

Abstract

Introdução: os fibromiomas ou fibroleiomiomas uterinos são os tumores benignos mais frequentes durante a idade reprodutiva. Podem causar grande desconforto no dia-a-dia da mulher e limitar o potencial da fertilidade feminina. Quando o tratamento é necessário, devem ser ponderados fatores como a idade, raça, desejo de gravidez futura e a classificação FIGO do fibromioma.Materiais e métodos: realizou-se a pesquisa através do Serviço da Biblioteca do Centro Hospitalar e Universitário de Coimbra e em plataformas, nomeadamente PUBMED, Mendeley e Google Scholar, com utilização das palavras-chave. Com o intuito de obter artigos de interesse para o tema, os artigos científicos foram selecionados pelos respetivos título e resumo, alargando-se a pesquisa a referências bibliográficas destes. Incluíram-se artigos em inglês e português, com restrição ao período entre 2013 e 2018.Resultados: há evidência significativa da associação dos fibromiomas submucosos com a infertilidade, assim como os fibromiomas intramurais com componente submucoso. Por outro lado, os fibroleiomiomas subserosos não se consideram causadores de infertilidade. As hipóteses sugeridas para explicitar os mecanismos pelos quais os fibromiomas influenciam negativamente a fertilidade compreendem a localização ou distorção do endométrio, o tamanho, a recetividade do endométrio para a implantação, a alteração das contrações uterinas ou da junção endo-miometrial.Conclusões: a ressetoscopia melhora os resultados reprodutivos das mulheres com fibromiomas submucosos que desejam engravidar após tratamento, sendo este o tratamento preferível. Os fibromiomas intramurais poderão ser excisados por laparoscopia, se indicação para tal, ainda que a evidência clínica seja dúbia. O acetato de ulipristal é o fármaco com maior potencial para utilização no contexto de preservação da fertilidade. Os métodos de tratamento minimamente invasivos não mostram resultados atrativos para doentes com desejo de posterior conceção.

Background: uterine fibroids or leiomyomas are the most frequent benign tumors during reproductive age. They may cause major discomfort in daily life routine and limit women’s fertility potential. When treatment needed, it should be considered age, ethnicity, desiring of pregnancy and fibromyoma FIGO classification. Methods: the key-words were used for article research through services of the Centro Hospitalar e Universitário da Universidade de Coimbra Library and platforms like PUBMED, Mendeley and Google Scholar. The articles were selected by both title and abstract, enlarged with references of the previously selected items. A period restriction was made from 2013 to 2018.Results: submucosal leiomyomas are associated with infertility with significant evidence, as for intramural fibromyomas with cavity distortion. On the other hand, subserosal leiomyomas are not considered for infertility. The suggested theories for explaining how fibromyomas negatively affect fertility outcomes are location or endometrial distortion, size, endometrial receptivity, changes of uterine contractions or endomyometrial junction.Conclusions: myomectomy improves reproductive outcomes for women with submucosal fibromyoma desiring to conceive after treatment. Intramural leiomyomas may be excised by the laparoscopic technique, even though the evidence is doubtful in some cases. Ulipristal acetate is the medical treatment that potentially may be used in the context of fertility preservation. Minimal invasive techniques do not show encouraging outcomes for women who wish to conceive in the future.
