In recent years, many clinical trials have used low-dose mifepristone to control uterine fibroids, some of which have achieved good results. However, according to the classic concept, long-term use of mifepristone could induce malignant transformation of the endometrium, and the effect of ultra-low-dose of mifepristone on uterine fibroids is still uncertain. Researchers are short on cases of uterine fibroids treated with mifepristone for long periods (more than a year).
A 47-year-old woman went to the hospital because of anemia.
The patient was diagnosed with uterine leiomyoma.
The patient refused the suggestion of surgery, she was continuously treated with an ultra-low-dose (12.5 mg per 5 days) of mifepristone monotherapy for 4 years.
The uterine leiomyoma was stable, anemia and other symptoms disappeared, and the menstrual cycle, liver and kidney function, and tumor markers were normal.
Judging from our case, long-term, ultra-low-dose mifepristone for uterine fibroids treatment was safe and more effective than conventional therapy.
近年来,许多临床试验采用低剂量米非司酮治疗子宫肌瘤,部分取得了较好的效果。然而,根据经典概念,米非司酮长期使用可能会导致子宫内膜恶变,超低剂量米非司酮治疗子宫肌瘤的效果尚不确定。研究者们对接受米非司酮治疗超过 1 年(即长期)的子宫肌瘤病例数量较少。
一位 47 岁女性因贫血就诊。
患者被诊断为子宫肌瘤。
患者拒绝手术建议,她连续接受超低剂量(每 5 天 12.5 毫克)米非司酮单药治疗 4 年。
子宫肌瘤稳定,贫血等症状消失,月经周期、肝肾功能和肿瘤标志物正常。
从我们的病例来看,长期超低剂量米非司酮治疗子宫肌瘤安全且比常规治疗更有效。
