Key clinical point: Long noncoding ribonucleic acid (lncRNA) H19 and 10-11 translocation enzyme 1 (TET1) messenger RNA expression levels showed high diagnostic and predictive values for determining postoperative recurrence of uterine fibroids (UFs).

Major finding: lncRNA H19 (P = .010) and TET1 (P = .014) levels independently predicted UF recurrence. The area under the curve values of lncRNA H19 and TET1 for predicting UF recurrence were 0.814 (sensitivity, 81.13%; specificity, 77.27%) and 0.765 (sensitivity, 69.81%; specificity, 77.27%), respectively.

Study details: This study enrolled 75 patients with UFs who underwent surgical treatment and 60 healthy controls. Patients with UF were followed up for 2 years to evaluate postoperative recurrence of UFs.

Disclosures: No information on funding was available. The authors declared no conflict of interests.
