VOLUMINOUS TUMOR, HYSTERECTOMY, ANAEMIA INTRODUCTION In developed countries there is an increase in the incidence of uterine tumours, which became the third localization after breast and rectum-colon in women, before cervical cancer.This thing happened because of the growth of the average life span of women, of estrogenic substitution therapy and obesity. Physical examination revealed generalized pallor, the abdomen with the adipose pan well represented (obesity grade II/III); on the genital exam vulva-vagina normal aspect, with supple walls until the uterine cervix, where we found a friable, irregular, bleeding tumour of 10/15 cm, with stretched areas of suppuration and necrosis, fetid odor, which prolapsed up to vagina, which occupies in the upper 2/3. Intraoperator, the uterus looked exactly how the ultrasound examination revealed. Because of the big size of uterine body and the obese patient, there was some problems during the surgery, the surgical marks being disbanded (the boundery between the body and cervix uterus couldn't be identified).
