Zur Klinik der endometrioiden Heterotopien (Adenomyosis) beim geschlechtsreifen Weibe1)

This 1929 clinical lecture by Ernst Wertheim examines the pathology and clinical presentation of endometrioid heterotopias, specifically adenomyosis, in sexually mature women. The author details the histological characteristics of these lesions, emphasizing their presence within the uterine wall and their distinction from other gynecological conditions. The paper highlights the diagnostic challenges associated with identifying adenomyosis through physical examination and correlates its symptoms with menstrual irregularities and pelvic pain. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis, describing its clinical features and pathological nature in early twentieth-century medical literature.
