This project focuses on myomectomy patients in reproductive age. The aim is to study both the molecular characteristics of uterine fibroids and to characterize the clinical effects of surgical treatment.
Patient series is mainly retrospective and consists of individuals who have undergone myomectomy at Helsinki University Central Hospital (HUCH) during 2009-2015. In addition, the investigators have started a prospective sample collection starting in October 2015, collecting samples from myomectomies.
Clinical data sources include medical records, specific questionnaires and a quality of life -questionnaire filled by patients.
