The aim of this pilot study was to analyze the frequencies of alleles and genotypes of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism <jats:italic>ADIPOQ<\/jats:italic> (NM_004797.4):c.214+62G&amp;gt;T (rs1501299) and to correlate it with the risk of uterine fibroids.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Study Design:<\/jats:bold> The Test Group comprised 90 women treated surgically for uterine leiomyomas in the Department of Operative Gynecology, Endoscopy and Gynecologic Oncology, Polish Mother\u2019s Memorial Hospital-Research Institute. 90 disease-free individuals were used as Controls.
