A medical team at the Villa Elisa hospital removed a 3.830 kg fibroid from a 42-year-old patient suffering from uterine fibroids. The surgery, performed by specialists in gynecology, general surgery, anesthesiology, and surgical instrumentation, was successful, and the woman was discharged to continue her recovery at home.
The Ministry of Public Health highlighted the coordinated work of the team and emphasized the importance of regular gynecological check-ups to detect and treat conditions like this early. The hospital's Gynecology and Obstetrics Service operates Monday through Friday, morning and afternoon shifts, with appointments on a first-come, first-served basis.
