Abstract
The most frequent benign tumors in premenopausal women are uterine fibroids, which can cause significant morbidity if left untreated. The aim of this study was to assess the type and stage of uterine fibroid in women undergoing transabdominal ultrasound scans. A total of hundred women were evaluated between January‐October 2023, using a trans‐abdominal approach. The range of the patients’ ages was 25‐50 years and majority of cases were between 30‐40. The majority, 54% of the fibroids were intramural next being subserosal. Most common FIGO staging was 4. The growth and incidence of these frequent tumors are thought to be caused by a number of variables, but their exact cause is yet unknown. They may be detected incidentally when performing ultrasonography for other reasons and are usually easily recognizable. The most prevalent type of uterine fibroid is an intramural fibroid. They develop within the uterus's musculature. Knowledge of the various appearances of fibroids enables an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
