Role of Vasopressin Injection Intramyometrial in Decreasing Blood Loss During Abdominal Myomectomy (A Randomized Controlled Trial)

Abdominal myomectomy is a major operation. Massive blood loss is the most serious complication which should be taken in consideration to decrease morbidity and mortality. There are several modalities to decrease blood loss approached in different studies as preoperative GnRh, uterine artery tourniquet, tranexamic acid, vasopressin …etc.The aim of the study was to assess the role of vasopressin injection intramyometrial in decreasing blood loss during abdominal myomectomy.This study is an RCT which was conducted at Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital on 60 women with uterine fibroid admitted for abdominal myomectomy to detect if vasopressin injection intramyometrial had a role in decreasing blood loss versus placebo or not.The end results showed that that the mean of blood loss was 826.67cc with standard deviation 185.94 and 115.53cc with standard deviation 23.17 at control and vasopressin group respectively with p- value
