Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Adenomyosis is defined as the benign invasion of endometrial tissue into the underlying myometrium, which results in a diffuse enlargement of the uterus and observed in individuals between the ages of 40-60.Risk factors for adenomyosis include smoking, multiparity, dilatation, and curettage.The presence of endometrial tissue and 1-2 low power fields from the endometrio-myometrial junction are used to diagnose adenomyosis by histological examination of a hysterectomy specimen.Other tests include MRI and transvaginal ultrasonography.
