Two patients, aged 48 and 45 years, were treated for symptomatic uterine fibroids with not only embolization of both uterine but also both ovarian arteries. Note was made of other collateral arterial supply via branches of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA). The two identified SMA branches were embolized for the first patient, but no embolization was deemed necessary for the other patient.
