Abstract

The paper carries out a systems analysis of the data available in the current literature on the etiopathogenesis and risk factors of uterine leiomyoma. It gives main etiological hypotheses for uterine leiomyoma, molecular mechanisms for its development, and risk factors for tumor development. According to the current concepts, uterine leiomyoma is a multifactorial andpolyetiological disease, the development of which involves genetic and epigenetic mechanisms, hormone-dependent and hormone- independent myometrial smooth muscle cell proliferation that is determined by growth factors, apoptotic mechanisms, and reactions to injury and inflammation.
