This prospective cross-sectional pathology study assessed 53 hysterectomy specimens with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy collected in 2016, using gross examination and hematoxylin and eosin staining to identify adenomyosis and co-existing benign lesions. Adenomyotic foci were found in 39.6% of cases, with patients having a mean age of 40 years. Co-existing benign lesions were reported, with ovarian cysts (57.1%) most frequent, followed by endometrial polyps/adenomyomatous polyps (19%) and leiomyomas (9.5%), while 14.2% had adenomyosis alone. The study’s main limitation is that it is based on a relatively small, single-center sample from a single year. Relevance to endometriosis: The paper is centrally about adenomyosis — it evaluates adenomyosis incidence and associated benign lesions in hysterectomy with BSO.

Abstract

Objectives: To determine the incidence of adenomyosis and to assess its association with co– existing benign lesions. Methodology: This prospective cross section study carried out at the Department of Pathology, Muhammad Medical College Mirpurkhas Sindh Pakistan from 1st January 2016 to 31st December 2016. Total 53 cases of hysterectomies with BSO were assessed. All specimens were grossly examined in detail and processed through hematoxylin and eosin stains. All the sections were examined for adenomyosis and its associated co – existing benign lesions. Results: Out of 53 specimens of hysterectomies with BSO, in 39.6% were found adenomyotic foci. The patients mean age was 40 years. Besides adenomyosis alone 14.2%, the associated co – existing benign lesion were ovarian cysts (57.1 %). Endometrial polyps and adenomyomatous Polyps (19 %) and Leiomyomas (9.5 %). Conclusion: Adenomyosis is common in middle aged women. The ovarian cysts are frequent co – existing benign lesions of adenomyosis. Key Words: Adenomyosis, Bilateral Salpingo-oophorectomy, Hysterectomy.

Results

Out of 53 specimens of hysterectomies with BSO, in 39.6% were found adenomyotic foci. The patients mean age was 40 years. Besides adenomyosis alone 14.2%, the associated co – existing benign lesion were ovarian cysts (57.1 %). Endometrial polyps and adenomyomatous Polyps (19 %) and Leiomyomas (9.5 %).

Conclusion

Adenomyosis is common in middle aged women. The ovarian cysts are frequent co – existing benign lesions of adenomyosis. Key Words: Adenomyosis, Bilateral Salpingo-oophorectomy, Hysterectomy.
