MONTANEZ, Miguel Ángel; HIGUERA-GARCIA, Juan Sebastián  e  VARGAS-RODRIGUEZ, Ledmar Jovanny. Myoma nascens: Clinical case. Ginecol. obstet. Méx. [online]. 2022, vol.90, n.7, pp.612-615.  Epub 26-Set-2022. ISSN 0300-9041.  https://doi.org/10.24245/gom.v90i7.6968.

BACKGROUND:

Uterine fibroids are the most frequent gynecologic tumors during reproductive age and extremely rare in preadolescence and early adolescence, representing only 1% of all cases. It is even more exceptional that these cases manifest as myoma prolapse (myoma nascens).

CLINICAL CASE:

11-year-old female patient from Tunja, Colombia, height 143 cm, weight 31 kg, BMI 15.15 kg/m2 (risk of thinness by Colombian resolution), with no pathological, pharmacological or surgical history; menarche at 11 years old, without onset of sexual life. She was taken to consultation due to a clinical picture of five hours of evolution, consisting of a mass of approximately 3 cm in diameter, protruding the vagina at the time of defecation, painful on palpation, with scanty bleeding and vaginal discharge. The initial suspicion was possible cervical polyp.

CONCLUSION:

Cases of myoma nascens are, in general, infrequent, even more so in pediatric age. More studies are needed to establish the biological characteristics of this type of lesions in girls and adolescents to indicate the most appropriate treatment. Surgical treatment seems to be the option that has received the most support in other case reports. Follow-up is crucial because the behavior of this type of lesions in this age group is unknown.
