So-called fibroids occur deep in uterine muscle layer (interstitial hysteromyoma), sprouting of the muscle layer in the body depth (submucous myoma of the uterus), or vice versa, to grow to outside the uterus in the pelvic region (subserous uterine fibroids).
If the nodule has formed under the top layer of the uterus serous, we are talking about subserous uterine cancer. Himself node may have a short thick base ilitonkoe and elongated. Second - very unfavorable to women, the leg can easily become twisted, causing the death of the tumor, causing purulent inflammation of the entire abdominal area. Myoma formation with a thick base tend to increase their sizes, whereby the organs surrounding the uterus can be squeezed.
Subserous nodules may not be felt quite a long period. But then there is the deterioration of health.
