Cardiac arrest due to massive hemorrhage from uterine adenomyosis with leiomyoma successfully treated with damage control resuscitation. Acute Medicine & Surgery 2016; 3(4): 388–391.
On page 388, the name of the pill “dienogest” was incorrect. The statement should have read as below.
Approximately 1 year previously, the patient had been diagnosed with anemia caused by a uterine tumor. Although the patient was offered surgery for the tumor, which was causing abnormal genital bleeding, she had left the tumor untreated and had taken pill.
