Myometrial involvement of tumor-like cystic endosalpingiosis: a rare entity
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2008) Cil, A. P.; Atasoy, P.; Kara, S. A.
Endosalpingiosis is characterized by the presence of benign glands lined by tubal-type epithelium involving the pelvic and lower abdominal peritoneum and pelvic and para-aortic lymph nodes in women. Rarely, cystiflcation can occur, resulting in a neoplasm-like mass associated with clinical manifestations, an intraoperative abnormality, or a striking finding on gross examination. Here we report the transvaginal ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging and bistopathological appearance of an unusual case of cystic endosalpingiosis involving the right ovary and full thickness of the wall of the uterine fundus in a patient who presented with a 6-month history of menor-rhagia and pelvic pain. Clinicians should be aware of this type of uterine benign manifestation so as to refrain from overtreatment. Copyright (c) 2008 ISUOG. Published by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
