Adverse effect analysis of high-intensity focused ultrasound in the treatment of benign uterine diseases.

CONCLUSIONS: Based on the results with low rate of major adverse effects from multiple centers, we concluded that HIFU is safe in treating patients with benign uterine diseases. With development of this technique and more experience on the part of the physicians, the rates of the major adverse effects will be further lowered.
