Abstract

A case of an adenomyotic cyst in a 46-year-old woman was examined by means of transvaginal ultrasound, hysteroscopy and microscopy. The transvaginal ultrasound showed an anechoic area. Hysteroscopy revealed a cystic mass of the posterior wall and by means of a bipolar loop resectoscope the mass was removed. Histological examination of the lesion showed typical characteristics of an adenomyotic cyst. These results were consistent with those of previous reports and suggest that transvaginal ultrasound together with hysteroscopy is specific to diagnose and treat this kind of adenomyotic lesion.
