Abstract
This article analyzes differences between a myomectomy by way of laparotomy
and a laparoscopic approach to myomectomy. Surgical techniques are present
ed. Comparisons are made based on technical difficulty, complications, post
operative adhesion formation, and subsequent pregnancy and delivery rates.
