I wouldn't dig around in the myometrium to remove one. Ronald E. Ainsworth -----Original Message----- From: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net [mailto:ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of Dr. John Provatopoulos B.Sc.

Having said all that I have done a few myomemectomies at c-section and they all went soomthly, so its better to be lucky then good. -- Take care, John Next message: Freda: "new y-chromosone parasite (friday)" Previous message: Efrain Ramirez: "Re: MTHFR for old doctors" In reply to: Dr. John Provatopoulos B.Sc.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
