High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) demonstrated a safe and effective therapeutic profile for adenomyosis, yielding superior postoperative reproductive outcomes compared to laparoscopic excision.

One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

HIFU showed a safe and effective profile as a therapeutic management option for patients with adenomyosis. In comparison with LE, HIFU treatment achieved better postoperative reproductive outcomes. HIFU treatment should be encouraged and implemented in clinical practice.
