Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE): Empowering Women with Effective Treatment Options

UFE Image.jpg

Uterine fibroids are a common condition affecting many women worldwide, leading to symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, urinary frequency and more. At EndoVascular Consultants, we're dedicated to providing advanced treatment options like Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) that offer relief without the need for major surgery.

Understanding Uterine Fibroids

Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that form in or around the uterus. While they are not usually dangerous, they can cause significant discomfort and disrupt daily life. Symptoms may include unpredictable menstrual cycles, heavy bleeding, and pelvic pain.

The UFE Solution

UFE is a minimally invasive procedure performed by a skilled interventional radiologist. Through a tiny incision, a catheter delivers particles to block the blood vessels feeding the fibroids, causing them to shrink. UFE offers over a 90% patient satisfaction rate and is an effective alternative to hysterectomy.

Why Choose EndoVascular Consultants for Your UFE?

At EVC, your health and comfort are our utmost priorities. Our team, led by Dr. Mark Garcia, brings over two decades of specialized experience in interventional radiology to your care. We're committed to empowering women by enhancing their health options and providing comprehensive support through every step of their treatment journey.

Vascular Surgeon Vs. Interventional Radiologist

You may not need invasive surgery to address your health concerns. At EndoVascular Consultants (EVC), we specialize in minimally invasive procedures, offering a less intrusive alternative to traditional surgery. As interventional radiologists, we perform techniques that typically result in shorter recovery times and fewer complications compared to conventional surgical methods.

​

Vascular surgeons, on the other hand, may offer traditional surgical options, including procedures like bypass surgery or vein stripping. If you're considering your treatment options, we invite you to consult with us to explore whether a minimally invasive procedure might be suitable for your condition. Contact us to see if we can treat your Uterine Fibroid Embolization with a minimally invasive technique.
