Uterine fibroids are among the most common benign tumors affecting women, with a prevalence reaching up to 50–60% in those over 40 years of age, although often underestimated due to asymptomatic cases. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) represents a minimally invasive alternative to surgery for selected patients. We report the case of a 41-year-old woman with symptomatic uterine fibroids (FIGO type 4, size of 5 cm) treated with transvaginal RFA. One month post- treatment, the fibroid showed partial volume reduction. Two months after the procedure, the patient presented with foul-smelling discharge and heavy bleeding. Ultrasound confirmed complete fibroid migration into the cervical canal. Vaginal removal was performed without complications. Fibroid expulsion after RFA is a rare event that may represent either a complication or a therapeutic outcome. A balanced interpretation and appropriate clinical management are required. Further studies are needed to clarify its clinical significance.
