Forty patients with myoma uteri of varying sites were treated by the new little invasive method – embolization of the uterine arteries. All the patients were admitted to the clinic with the symptoms of the high menstrual blood loss or functional disorders of the pelvic organs. Embolization of the uterine arteries made it possible to achieve good clinical results marked by minimization or removal of the clinical manifestations of myoma uteri.

KEY WORDS: embolization of uterine arteries, myoma uteri.
