Theoretically, as the uterine arteries(UA) are the main blood supply of uterine myomas(UM), growth of UM will be inhibited if the UA were occluded. Since the laparoscopic uterine artery occlusion(LUAO) for treatment of UM was first reported in 2000, this technology has been widely used because of safe, effective and minimally invasive. In recent years, it was combined with myomectomy, which was not only expanded the scope of its application, but also enriched the indications of myomectomy.
