  • Title: [Levels of ferritin and iron in women with leiomyoma of the uterus treated surgically].
    Author: Brodziński W, Wozikowski B, Dzwoniarkiewicz Z.
    Journal: Ginekol Pol; 1992 Jun; 63(6):296-9. PubMed ID: 1305130.
    Abstract:
    The aim of the work were changes of serum ferritin and iron concentrations in women with leiomyoma of the uterus treated surgically. We took the growth of the leiomyomatous uterus under concern. We observed the lower serum ferritin and iron concentrations before the surgical treatment, and the correlation with the growth of the leiomyoma. The results show that surgery for leiomyomatous uterine contributes significantly for the increase of the serum iron and ferritin in patients.
