This case report describes the ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging features of pathologically confirmed polypoid endometriosis, a rare lesion often mistaken for a neoplasm.

One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

Polypoid endometriosis is a rare variant of endometriosis that is pathologically similar to an endometrial polyp. This lesion is frequently mistaken for a solid neoplasm in clinical, radiological and pathological examinations. The clinical and pathological features of the lesion have been well described in the English literature. However, its imaging features have not been reported in the Korean literature. We describe ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging features of pathologically-confirmed polypoid endometriosis.
