The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of conservative adenomyomectomy with TOUA for diffuse uterine adenomyosis and to determine the feasibility and safety. One hundred and sixteen patients with symptomatic diffuse uterine adenomyosis underwent adenomyomectomy with TOUA by a single surgeon at Ulsan University Hospital between May 2011 and March 2016. Surgical outcomes included operative time, intraoperative injury and operative blood loss. We assessed the degree of improvement in dysmenorrhea and menorrhagia at the 7-month follow-up visit after the operation. The mean age of patients was 37.49 years (range: 26–49). The mean total surgical time was 116.12 min (range: 60–300, SD: 37.27). The mean estimated blood loss was 207.22 mL (range: 30–1200, SD: 161.08) and there were no cases of injury to the uterine arteries or pelvic nerves. The mean duration of hospital stay was 5.05 days (range: 4–7, SD: 0.68) and the mean follow-up period of 16.67 months (range: 6–49, SD: 12.77). At the 7-month follow-up after adenomyomectomy with TOUA, dysmenorrhea and menorrhagia were improved in 100% and 89% of the patients, respectively. In patients with diffuse uterine adenomyosis, even when the whole uterus is involved, for relief of severe adenomyosis-related symptoms, adenomyomectomy with TOUA could be a safe and effective surgical treatment option for those who want to preserve their fertility.
