One complication of myomectomy is the possible development of adhesions between the uterus and other pelvic structures.

This is best performed using magnification and microsurgical principles of surgery. In addition, an adhesion barrier can be placed over the uterine incisions to further prevent the likelihood of adhesion formation.
