Resumen

Objetivo: Investigar en la literatura científica el tratamiento de la adenomiosis con el Dispositivo Intrauterino de Levonorgestrel (DIU-LNG). Métodos: Se trata de una revisión integradora de la literatura, con artículos publicados entre 2019 y 2024, en portugués e inglés. La búsqueda de artículos se realizó considerando los descriptores “Intrauterine Devices”, “Levonorgestrel” y “Adenomyosis”, utilizando el operador booleano “AND”, en las bases de datos de la Biblioteca Nacional de Medicina (PubMed), Science Direct y Google Scholar. Resultados: Se seleccionaron 13 artículos de 5.002 inicialmente encontrados. De ellos, 11 confirmaron la eficacia del DIU-LNG en el tratamiento de la adenomiosis, con mejoría de los síntomas y reducción del volumen uterino. Cuatro estudios informaron la expulsión del dispositivo en úteros grandes, pero las modificaciones en la inserción, como la fijación con sutura, redujeron este problema y mejoraron los resultados. Sólo un estudio demostró una mayor eficacia del Dienogest en comparación con el DIU-LNG. Conclusión: Se concluye que el DIU de levonorgestrel es eficaz para reducir el dolor pélvico y la metrorragia, síntomas comunes de la adenomiosis, y para reducir el volumen uterino con pocos efectos hormonales. Es una alternativa eficiente y menos invasiva para controlar los síntomas sin recurrir a la histerectomía.
