Retrospective cohort study finds polidocanol improves HIFU efficacy for uterine fibroids, suggesting enhanced treatment benefits.
Pretreatment with ultrasound-guided intratumoral polidocanol injection may improve the immediate ablation efficacy of HIFU in T2-hyperintense uterine fibroids, reducing energy requirements and mitigating procedure-related sacrococcygeal pain. These findings highlight the potential of this combined therapy and underscore the need for prospective studies to confirm its long-term clinical benefits.
