Abstract
Uterine blood flow has been studied using intra‐arterial 133Xenon. Compartment analysis was used for calculation of blood flow from the wash‐out curves. In 7 myomatous uteri the mean blood flow was 11.6·1.70 ml·min−1· 100 g−1. In 8 control cases the mean blood flow was 20.1·2.27 ml·min−1· 100 g−1. The difference is statistically significant on the 1% level. From the present study it cannot be decided how the uterine blood flow is distributed between myomata and surrounding myometrium.
