Transient Occlusion of Uterine Arteries in Procedures with High Risk of Uterine Bleeding

INTRODUCTION: Uterine-conservative surgery via laparoscopy is a challengeable and high risk because of heavy intra-operative bleeding events in reproductive women with highly vascular uterine benign disease. There are three reported cases of women with highly vascular uterine benign diseases and high risk of intra-operative heavy bleeding, but were treated successfully to control intra-operative heavy bleeding risk by transient occlusion of the uterine artery (TOUA) through laparoscopy and resulted in safe conservation of the uterus. CASE PRESENTATION: The cases of women with high risk of heavy bleeding during therapeutic procedure included cesarean scar pregnancy, hydatid form mole on cesarean scar, and cervical pregnancy. All these women had the strong desire to presere their fertility and uterus. In all the three cases, we used the method of TOUA and performed therapeutic surgeries successfully, with less bleeding and safe conservation of the uterus through laparoscopy. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic TOUA could be a therapeutic option to manage heavy intra-operative bleeding during conservative uterine surgeries associated with the risk of heavy bleeding.
