Understand the main classification of uterine fibroids

What are the main classifications of uterine fibroids? Do you know the common uterine fibroids in the classification of uterine fibroids? Below we will introduce the classification of uterine fibroids to you.

Uterine fibroids are classified according to the different parts of the uterus where the fibroids are located.

1. Intramural fibroids. Fibroids are located within the muscular wall and are surrounded by the muscular layer. This type of fibroid is the most common type at the onset of the disease, accounting for about 60-70%, and is the most common type of uterine fibroids.

2. Subserosal fibroids. Intramural fibroids develop toward the serosa and protrude from the surface of the uterus, directly contacting the serosa, accounting for about 20%. If they protrude between the two leaves of the broad ligament, they are intra-broad ligament fibroids, which are also a common type of uterine fibroids.

3. Submucosal fibroids. Intramural fibroids grow into the uterine cavity, protrude from the uterine cavity, and come into direct contact with the mucosal layer, accounting for about 10%-15%. This tumor can gradually enlarge and deform the uterine cavity, and often has a pedicle connected to the uterus. If the pedicle is long, it can block the cervical opening or fall out of the vagina.

4. Cervical fibroids. This is a relatively rare type of uterine fibroids. Fibroids grow in the cervix of the uterus. Because of their low growth position, they can be embedded in the pelvic cavity, causing compression symptoms, making surgical removal difficult and easily damaging the ureter and bladder. Uterine fibroids are often multiple, and the above different types of fibroids can occur simultaneously in the same uterus, which is called multiple uterine fibroids.

The above are the main classifications of uterine fibroids. We hope that these common or uncommon uterine fibroids can attract everyone's attention through our introduction, so that everyone can remember these while reading the classifications of these uterine fibroids. Ensure that these diseases can be nipped in the bud at an early stage, so that we can enjoy a happy life without being disturbed by gynecological diseases!
