Proliferative diseases present an important issue in contemporary gynecology. Among gynecological diseases, combinations of benign proliferative diseases represent up to 85% of cases. This pathology is most frequently detected in patients aged 40-45 years. Comorbid proliferative diseases are among the most common indications for radical hysterectomy, a procedure that is complicated by the development of post-hysterectomy syndrome. This condition significantly reduces the quality of life and performance of relatively young women.
The gold standard of therapy for comorbid proliferative disorders is the use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists, which block sex hormone synthesis and have marked antiproliferative, antiangiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects.
This article presents a review of the scientific literature data on the use of the drug Buserelin-depo in the treatment of comorbid proliferative diseases.
Conclusion: According to the literature, the use of Buserelin-depo in the complex therapy for comorbid diseases can lead to a reduction in the size of the enlarged uterus, relatively rapid relief of pain syndrome and abnormal uterine bleeding, reduction in the risk of postoperative complications and recurrences. This significantly improves the quality of life of this group of patients, reduces the number of radical treatments and improves the outcomes of organ-preserving surgeries.
