Fundal Fibroid Uterus
can a fibroid get a biopsy? Is it necessary for me to have a hysterectomy?
This is a follow up question to my 1st question.
I am in menopause, and have bleeding (like a period, about once or twice a year) I was diagnose with leiomyomatous uterus with fibroid.The uterus is globular in shape and has irregular parenchymal echoes throughout. It measures 10.2×6.3×9.3 cm. There is a discrete anterior fundal intramural fibroid that measures 7.6×5.3×6.6 cm.
The normal appearing uniformly echogenic and thick endometrial stripe is identified measuring 4mm.
There is no sonographic evidence of free fluid in the cul-de-sac.
Help me understand exactly what this means???
