Abstract

Adenomyosis has been well known to be associated with infertility, spontaneous rupture of the uterus during labor in a primiparous woman, spontaneous preterm labor, preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), and delayed postpartum hemorrhage. We recently experienced a case of preterm delivery at 29 gestational weeks in a primigravid woman with uterine adenomyosis. We report the case of preterm delivery accompanied by various complications such as uncontrolled pain, preterm labor, and oligohydramnios in a woman with uterine adenomyosis.
