The Biology of Fibroids It is possible then to imagine a spectrum characterizing how “alive” a fibroid is. Cellular fibroids, an uncommon fibroid subtype, are at one end of the spectrum and contain more smooth muscle cells per unit volume than the surrounding normal myometrium and little or no ECM.

Fibroid Tumors in Women: A Hidden Epidemic? It's estimated that about three-quarters of American women of childbearing age have fibroid tumors in their uteruses. These benign tumors can cause not only pain, anemia, excessive menstrual bleeding, and infertility — they are also responsible for a third of the 200,000 hysterectomies in the United States each year.

Uterine fibroids Many women who have fibroids don't have any symptoms. In those that do, symptoms can be influenced by the location, size and number of fibroids. Rarely, a fibroid can cause acute pain when it outgrows its blood supply, and begins to die. Fibroids are generally classified by their location. Intramural fibroids grow within the muscular uterine wall. Submucosal fibroids bulge into the uterine cavity. Subserosal fibroids project to the outside of the uterus. Some subserosal or submucosal fibroids are pedunculated — they hang from a stalk inside or outside the uterus. Many women who have fibroids don't have any symptoms. In those that do, symptoms can be influenced by the location, size and number of fibroids. In women who have symptoms, the most common symptoms of uterine fibroids include:

This is the least common type of fibroid; however these types of fibroids commonly cause symptoms such as heavy prolonged menstrual periods.

Benign Uterine Fibroid Tumors Updated July 11, 2016. Uterine fibroid tumors are almost always benign. These benign (non-cancerous) tumors are found in most cases, in the uterus of women in their 30's and 40's. Fibroid tumors are solid tumors which are made of fibrous tissue, hence the name 'fibroid' tumor.

Fibroids Inside and Outside of the Uterus There are several complications that may arise with the presence of fibroids. Common symptoms include heavy bleeding, bloating, pain in the lower back, urinary incontinence, etc. With fibroids that are “outside of your uterus”, called pedunculated fibroids, additional symptoms can come about. Because pedunculated fibroids consist of a fibroid that is connected to your uterus by a stem, they may twist and can cause pain, nausea, or fever. Pedunculated fibroids consist of two general types: subserosal and submucosal.

Uterine Fibroids Uterine Fibroids are common non-cancerous (benign) tumors of the uterus and are the most frequent reason for recommending a hysterectomy. They grow from the muscular wall of the uterus and are made up of muscle and fibrous tissue. Many women over 35 have fibroids, but usually have no symptoms. In some women, however, fibroids (myomas) may cause heavy bleeding, pelvic discomfort and pain and occasionally exert pressure on other organs. These symptoms may require treatment.

Doctors will refer to the size of a fibroid in terms of a developing baby that size – in other words, 12 weeks. Some fibroids can be as small as a pea, but others can be as large as a seven-or eight-month-old foetus.

Menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding) There are three major types of uterine fibroids. Intramural fibroids grow within the muscular uterine wall. Submucosal fibroids bulge into the uterine cavity. Subserosal fibroids project to the outside of the uterus. Some submucosal or subserosal fibroids are pedunculated — they hang from a stalk inside or outside the uterus.

Leiomyoma A leiomyoma, also known as fibroids, is a benign smooth muscle tumor that very rarely becomes cancer (0.1%). They can occur in any organ, but the most common forms occur in the uterus, small bowel, and the esophagus. Polycythemia may occur due to increased erythropoietin production as part of a paraneoplastic syndrome.
