The case of a 53-year-old female with a large uterine cervical leiomyoma, who delivered it after uterine artery embolization(UAE), is described. UAE has received attention in the gynecologic field and reported as a new treatment for uterine leiomyomas, but it is not yet considered that UAE is indicated for all women with uterine leiomyomas because of rare but serious complications such as infection and hemorrhage. In this case we saw a very rare outcome of myoma delivery after UAE. Vaginal expulsion of uterine fibroids after UAE has previously been reported in only three cases we have surveyed. UAE may be considered an alternative to surgery in carefully selected cases with the knowledge of its effects and complications.
