Adenomyoma is a tumor (-oma) including components derived from glands (adeno-) and muscle (-my-).[1] It is a type of complex and mixed tumor.
Uterine adenomyoma[edit | edit source]
In obstetrics and gynecology contexts, it is a form of adenomyosis that forms a mass or growth around the tissue of the inner uterus.
Most cases of adenomyosis are non-symptomatic. However, it may present with dysmenorrhea and pelvic pain. In the case of juvenile cystic adenomyoma, laparoscopic enucleation results in a statistically and clinically significant reduction in dysmenorrhea, ease in any chronic pelvic pain, and low risk of recurrence.[2]
