Background Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE) is a well-established treatment of symptomatic fibroids with clinical efficacy comparable with traditional surgical treatment. UAE is now commonly proposed as an organ preserving treatment to the population of younger women willing to conceive. It has been proven, in a large cohort of women wishing to conceive before embolization, that complete pregnancies can occur after UAE Objectives The study aims to assess the effect of uterine artery embolization using the different types of embolic microspheres in treatment of patients with uterine fibroid. Patients and Methods Type of Study: prospective study. Study Setting: At the radiology department of Ain Shams University hospitals and Ain Shams University Specialized Hospitals. Study Period: 6-12 months. Results High symptom severity score indicates severe symptoms and a high HRQOL score indicates a good quality of life. The mean UFS questionnaire baseline score was 70± 11.51 prior to embolization and became 45± 9.34 three months following embolization which indicates a good symptomatic response to the microspheres embolization. The mean QOL baseline score was 65± 8.58 prior to embolization and 81± 6.48 three months following embolization. Conclusion UAE using embolic microsphere is , an effective, minimally invasive procedure and easily one day procedure which showed competitive promising and well proved results when compared to other modalities outcomes in treating uterine fibroids such as conventional surgery. It deserves our attention to it's value and efficacy for the sake of the patient as a minimally invasive procedure providing better quality of life , using Embosphere and Embozene microspheres have the same symptomatic effect and volume reduction after three months follow up in compare with using Embosphere alone or with spherical polyvinyl alcohol particles.
