| الوصف: | Uterine fibroids are the commonest uterine neoplasms, they are benign tumors of smooth muscle origin. The study was done to look for the anatomical locations of uterine fibroids and their incidence in Sudanese women at Omdurman Maternity Hospital between 1st July 2014 to 5th October 2015. Their sociodemographic and ultrasound data were collected using a prepared questionnaire. The study included 138 confirmed cases of uterine fibroids out of 2968 investigated cases representing incidence rate of 4.6%. The highest incidence was found in the age group 36-40 years. Most dominant anatomical locations of uterine fibroids were intramural as a single mass (34.78%), followed by the intramural-subserosal in multiple masses (20.29%). The anatomical positions of uterine fibroids, posterior position was seen in (27.5%) which was the most dominant in single uterine fibroid mass, followed by the anterior-posterior position in multiple uterine one (18.1%). Intramural anatomical locations in single mass are the commonest uterine fibroids types which affect the Sudanese women. Key words: Anatomical locations; Uterine fibroid and leiomyomas |
