About Georgia Fibroids

Traditionally, the surgical removal of fibroids required an open abdominal incision, known as a myomectomy, or a complete removal of the uterus, known as a hysterectomy. These invasive procedures often involve a longer recovery time and a higher risk of complications.

UFE offers an alternative to these invasive surgeries. During a UFE procedure, Dr. Lie uses image-guided techniques to deliver tiny particles to the blood vessels that supply the fibroids. These particles inhibit the delivery of blood to the growths, causing them to shrink and eventually die.

One of the key advantages of UFE is that it is a minimally invasive procedure. It involves only a small incision in the wrist or groin area, through which a catheter is inserted and guided to the blood vessels supplying the fibroids. This non-surgical fibroid treatment reduces the recovery time compared to traditional surgeries and allows patients to return to normal activities sooner.

Another benefit of UFE is that it is a more comfortable patient procedure. General anesthesia is usually not required, and patients typically experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. Greater comfort and short recovery times make UFE a convenient option.

Dr. Lie takes the time to thoroughly evaluate each patient's condition and develop a personalized treatment plan that best suits their needs. His expertise in uterine fibroid embolization assures exceptional outcomes for his diverse patients. He is experienced in performing this procedure and stays current on the latest technological developments.

If you want a more comfortable and less invasive approach to uterine fibroid removal, consider consulting with Dr. Kevin T. Lie. His specialized knowledge and expertise in uterine fibroid embolization can provide you with a safe and effective treatment option.
