摘要：
A uterine fibroid treatment device providing for localized delivery of one or more treatment drugs for treating various uterine conditions including, for example, uterine fibroids, abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic adhesions and endometriosis. Generally, the uterine treatment device comprises a physical positioning element that can be inserted, positioned and maintained in close proximity to the uterine tissue to be treated. The treatment drugs delivered to the treatment location can include various combinations of anti-proliferative agents and angiogenesis inhibitors to provide different treatments concurrently. In some embodiments, the physical element can also serve the dual purpose of delivering the treatment drugs while simultaneously cutting off blood flow to a mature fibroid to initiate hypoxic/ischemic conditions within the mature fibroid.
