We report a case of a 20-week pregnant woman, who underwent embolisation of a cervical fibroid to end a life-threatening massive bleeding. This is the first reported case in the literature of a super-selective uterine fibroid embolisation (UFE) in a pregnant woman, even though pregnancy is considered an absolute contraindication for UFE. This rare case demonstrates that UFE can be safely performed during pregnancy providing an excellent short- and long-term clinical outcome for both mother and child.
我们报告了一例20周妊娠的妇女，她接受了宫颈肌瘤栓塞术以终止危及生命的大出血。这是文献中首次报道的孕妇超选择性子宫肌瘤栓塞术（UFE）病例，尽管妊娠被认为是UFE的绝对禁忌症。这个罕见的病例表明，在孕期可以安全地进行UFE，对母亲和孩子都能产生良好的短期和长期临床结果。
