Relief from painful uterine fibroids is possible with uterine fibroid embolization (UFE, also known as uterine artery embolization), an outpatient procedure that Carilion Clinic Interventional Radiologists perform to shrink fibroids that have grown on the uterus. For uterine fibroids that cause pelvic pain and other symptoms, UFE is a minimally invasive alternative to hysterectomy that can have you back on your feet in days.
