      A resident of Nizhny Novgorod successfully had a giant uterine fibroid removed, while the doctors managed to fully preserve the patient's reproductive function and the possibility of future pregnancy. The complex operation was performed by specialists from the N.I. Pirogov Clinic of High Medical Technologies at St. Petersburg State University. This was reported by RIA "Bokal presseka."

      Clinic specialists regularly perform minimally invasive surgeries even in severe forms of the disease. Thanks to modern technologies, it is possible to remove large tumors through small surgical accesses and avoid removing the uterus. Treatment is provided free of charge under quotas for high-tech medical care.

      According to obstetrician-gynecologist and surgeon Lada Pokrovskaya, the main task of the doctors is not just to rid the woman of the disease but to preserve her ability to become a mother. Modern techniques allow achieving this even in the most complex clinical situations. Now, women from Nizhny Novgorod with severe gynecological pathologies will be able to receive free treatment in St. Petersburg thanks to the cooperation between the "Tonus" clinic network and the St. Petersburg State University Clinic. As reported by the general director of "Tonus," Olga Mikhaleva, patients will be accepted with examination results performed in Nizhny Novgorod, and recovery after surgery can be done at home according to the recommendations of specialists from the St. Petersburg clinic.
