Uterine Artery Embolization in Uni-asia Cancer hospital
About the clinic
Uterine artery embolization is a minimally invasive treatment for uterine fibroids and adenomyosis at UNI-ASIA Cancer Hospital in Chengdu, China. This procedure helps patients avoid traditional surgery by blocking the blood supply to fibroids under digital subtraction angiography (DSA) guidance. Dr. Zhou Liang leads these treatments using advanced interventional methods to help patients recover quickly.
Treatment at UNI-ASIA Cancer Hospital
UNI-ASIA Cancer Hospital operates as a single-specialty center with a large 35,000 m² campus. The facility treats about 20,000 patients every year and provides 80 hotel-standard private rooms for comfort. The medical team specializes in minimally invasive oncology and interventional therapies. This focus allows the hospital to offer various alternatives to open surgery. Patients benefit from a modern environment designed for specialized care and recovery.
The Procedure and Technique
The medical team uses transarterial embolization to treat fibroids without large incisions. During the procedure, the doctor makes a tiny needle-hole puncture at the groin. A catheter is then guided into the artery that supplies blood to the fibroid. Small embolic particles are released to block this blood flow, causing the lesion to shrink. This process happens under local anesthesia, which reduces the risks associated with general sedation. Most patients can get out of bed and begin moving the next day.
Minimally Invasive Specialist
Dr. Zhou Liang is an Associate Chief Physician who focuses on interventional oncology. Dr. Liang specializes in treating uterine fibroids and adenomyosis using needle-point access methods. Beyond embolization, Dr. Zhou Liang is experienced in several other advanced technologies:
- NanoKnife ablation for precise tissue removal
- Cryoablation and microwave ablation to treat lesions with temperature
- Iodine-125 seed implantation for targeted therapy
- High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) as a non-invasive option
Personalized Care and Technology
The hospital uses a broad range of technologies to match the specific needs of each patient. If uterine artery embolization is not the best fit, the team can provide HIFU or various ablation methods. The use of DSA guidance helps the physician see the blood vessels clearly during the treatment. This precision helps protect healthy uterine tissue while focusing only on the fibroids.
