Abstract

The Venetian blind sign is a radiologic sign seen on pelvic ultrasound. It is classically associated with adenomyosis and, less commonly, uterine fibroids. It appears as alternating vertical stripes of hyperechoic and hypoechoic bands, resembling the horizontal slatted window blinds for which it is named.
