ABSTRACT
The uterine leiomyomas are benign smooth muscle tumors of slow growth, most patients are asymptomatic or discovered during
a routine gynecological examination. Clinical manifestations occur in 20-40% with abnormal uterine bleeding, chronic pelvic
pain, pelvic heaviness and occasionally reproductive alterations related to the size and location of leiomyomas. The medical
management is to improve symptoms or facilitate surgery, particularly if conservative avoiding the complications associated with
surgery. Technological advances in minimally invasive surgery, interventional imagenological, new drugs and a better understanding
of tumor biology of leiomyomas have replaced the traditional treatment hysterectomy. The uterine leiomyomas commonly found
in women of reproductive age, which most do not require treatment because of their kindness and only when it interferes with their
quality of life should be treated individually.
