What fibroid service is described here?

The hospital provides gynaecology assessment for fibroid concerns and open abdominal myomectomy where the responsible clinical team considers it suitable. Myomectomy removes fibroids while preserving the uterus. A recommendation is made only after review of symptoms, examination, relevant scan and test results, other health conditions and the patient’s preferences and pregnancy goals. Some women may need observation, medicines, a different procedure or referral instead of open myomectomy.

This page does not claim that the hospital offers laparoscopic or hysteroscopic myomectomy, uterine artery embolisation or every fibroid treatment. Ask the hospital to confirm its current service availability and the clinicians responsible for your care before travelling.

Who leads the hospital’s medical information?

Professor Obioma Okezie, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, leads the medical review of this website’s patient information. The clinician who will assess or operate on an individual patient should be confirmed directly during the appointment. We do not publish an unverified case volume, success rate or complication rate.

What to bring to a fibroid consultation

  • Recent pelvic ultrasound reports or other imaging, if available
  • Blood-test results, especially if heavy bleeding or anaemia has been discussed
  • Previous operation notes or treatment records, if relevant
  • A list of medicines, allergies, symptoms and questions
  • Your preferences about future pregnancy and uterus preservation

The clinical team will advise which records and tests are needed for your case. A consultation does not commit you to surgery. Read what to expect at a fibroid consultation in Enugu before your visit.

Questions to ask before deciding on surgery

  • Which fibroids appear to be causing my symptoms?
  • Why is open myomectomy being considered in my case?
  • What non-surgical options or alternative operations should I consider?
  • Who will perform the operation and provide anaesthesia?
  • What are the blood-loss, infection, fertility and recovery considerations for me?
  • What arrangements apply if a higher level of care or referral is needed?
  • What does my written estimate include, and what may change the final bill?
  • Who will explain follow-up, pathology results where applicable, and warning signs after discharge?

The answers depend on the individual assessment. No hospital can responsibly guarantee a particular scar, fertility result, recovery time or complication-free operation. Our fibroid surgery cost guide explains the components to ask about; it is not a fixed quotation.
