This 1996 chapter provides an overview of two gynecologic conditions characterized by endometrium-like glands and stroma: adenomyosis in the uterine wall and endometriosis outside the uterus. It states that the two conditions rarely coexist. The text is descriptive at a high level and does not present specific study methods, data, or an explicit limitation beyond being an overview. This paper is centrally about endometriosis and adenomyosis — defining their anatomic locations and noting their rare co-occurrence.
