Uterine fibroid

[The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology]

We are Korea’s leading gynecological institution in which three elements of education, research, and treatment achieve a perfect balance. As a key specialty in Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital derived from Myeongdong St. Mary’s Hospital with a half-century history, the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital has eleven outstanding specialists with a domestic and international reputation who are committed to diagnosis, treatment, and research.

We have written a history of gynecologic oncology in Korea and enjoys the dominant position in this field with a remarkable record of performing 3,000 operations a year including 140 surgeries and 200 laparoscopic surgeries for gynecologic cancer.

A precise examination is performed to diagnose the patient’s condition on the day of the visit.
For those who need surgery, robotic surgery is recommended, especially for women of childbearing age and those who want uterine preservation. The patient is admitted for three to four days after surgery and is required to revisit the doctor one week after discharge to check the surgical site. Additional examinations or treatments may be prescribed, if necessary.

Details are finalized after consulting with the hospital
