• The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of microwave endometrial ablation (MEA) in women with menorrhagia for office-based gynecology. Twenty five outpatients (average age 45.2) who hoped to avoid hysterectomy received MEA for treatment of menorrhagia. The mean operation time was 14.7 (7-54) min. The blood loss during a monthly menstrual period decreased in 22 women (88%) to less than 20%, 2 (8%) to less than 50%. Menorrhagia remained in 1 patient (4%) of the 25 women after MEA. Six patients (24%) felt nausea and 1 (4%) had diarrhea within 12 hours post-ablation. Three patients (12.0%) had mild endometritis after treatment. The average VAS score regarding feelings of satisfaction for MEA was 8.5 (full score=10). MEA for menorrhagia is feasible and safe, and an easy and fast in-office day surgical procedure that is minimally invasive for who hoped to avoid hysterectomy.
