This paper reports a rare hysteroscopic finding in a case where hemosiderin pigmentation was observed on the fundal endometrium. The authors describe hemosiderin pigmentation as a marker associated with multiple uterine conditions, explicitly including adenomyosis and endometritis among others. The main limitation is that the report is a single case and does not provide broader evidence beyond the described observation. This paper is centrally about hemosiderin pigmentation on hysteroscopy — a hysteroscopic marker linked to adenomyosis.
