The mean largest myoma diameter was 9.6\u2009\u00b1\u20093.4\u00a0cm; 66.7% were intramural. Uterine cavity entry occurred in 30.4%. Trial of labor after myomectomy was attempted in four patients (6.3%) and was successful in three. Two patients had placenta accreta spectrum (3.2%), and two required transfusions for postpartum hemorrhage. One full-thickness uterine rupture was identified incidentally at a planned elective cesarean at 37.4\u00a0weeks (1\/63; 1.6%) in an asymptomatic patient not in labor. A short myomectomy-to-pregnancy interval showed an association with rupture:\u2009&lt;\u20093\u00a0months (OR 103.0, 95% CI 2.85\u20133728.2;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.007) and\u2009&lt;\u20096\u00a0months (OR 25.9, 95% CI 1.94\u2013716.8;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.037).

However, as this association is based on a single event, it should be interpreted with caution and considered hypothesis-generating. Despite the low absolute risk, and consistent with literature supporting TOLAM in selected patients, TOLAM was markedly underutilized in our center, highlighting a practice gap that may be addressed through more standardized counseling and delivery planning in tertiary settings.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00404-026-08452-w","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,12]],"date-time":"2026-05-12T11:35:02Z","timestamp":1778585702000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Pregnancy and delivery after myomectomy for large fibroids: utilization of trial of labor and obstetric outcomes in a single-center cohort study"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"313","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4124-8809","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Matan","family":"Mor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Or","family":"Gil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Noa","family":"Feldman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maya","family":"Naor-Dovev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Neta","family":"Eisenberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4561-7659","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Noam","family":"Smorgick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"8452_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"128","DOI":"10.1016\/S1701-2163(15)30658-7","volume":"36","author":"HS Weibel","year":"2014","unstructured":"Weibel HS, Jarcevic R, Gagnon R, Tulandi T (2014) Perspectives of obstetricians on labour and delivery after abdominal or laparoscopic myomectomy.
