Abstract

The clinical and pathological features of an apparently unique case of an adenomyoitc cyst of the uterus are reported. The cyst was located within the myometrium of a 30-year-old woman suffering from vaginal bleeding for 6 months. Saline infusion sonohysterography revealed uterine cyst. After excision of the cyst, patient's symptoms improved. On histological examination, the cyst most closely resembled an adenomyotic cyst.
