📋Overview
These benign tumors, also referred to as uterine leiomyomas or myomas, can form within the uterine wall or on its outer surface. They vary significantly in size, ranging from small seedlings to large masses that may distort the shape of the uterus.
While many individuals remain asymptomatic, the presence of these growths can influence uterine function depending on their specific location and number. Clinical observations indicate that they are among the most frequent types of pelvic tumors found in the reproductive system.
