GnRH Agonist Pretreatment in Hysteroscopic Myomectomy

August 10, 2015 updated by: Sandro Gerli, Azienda Ospedaliera S. Maria della Misericordia

Surgical Effects of GnRH Agonist Pretreatment on Cold Loop Hysteroscopic Myomectomy.

The primary outcome of this study is to assess if the GnRHa administration before cold loop hysteroscopic myomectomy contributes to accomplish the treatment in only one surgical procedure. Moreover, we will investigate the intraoperative influence of such pharmacologic therapy in terms of distension liquid absorption and duration of the procedures.
