A mathematical model of the growth of uterine myomas

Uterine myomas or fibroids are common, benign smooth muscle tumours that can grow to 10 cm or more in diameter and are routinely removed surgically. They are typically slow- growing, well-vascularised, spherical tumours that, on a macro-scale, are a structurally uniform, hard elastic material. We pr...
