Six-year survival of patients with unsuspected uterine malignancy after laparoscopic versus laparotomic myomectomy: An 11-year national retrospective cohort study

The incidence of UUM after myomectomy was 0.08% after laparotomic or laparoscopic myomectomy. Although morcellator use does not reduce the overall survival rate, clinicians should explain the risks of intraperitoneal tumor dissemination to patients and do their best to prevent tumor spillage when using this tool.
