This paper presents three MRI cases of adenomyotic uterine cysts, noting their location, cystic fluid hyperintensity on T1-weighted images, and surrounding tissue hypointensity on T2-weighted images.

This study presents the radiologic and pathologic characteristics of three adenomyotic cyst cases identified through magnetic resonance imaging. The authors describe two subserosal lesions and one intramyometrial lesion, noting that all exhibited cystic spaces containing hyperintense fluid on T1-weighted images surrounded by hypointense tissue on T2-weighted images. These distinct imaging features provide a basis for distinguishing adenomyotic cysts from other uterine abnormalities. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis — specifically detailing the MRI appearance of adenomyotic cysts as a manifestation of the disease.

Abstract

The radiologic and pathologic features of three cases of adenomyotic cysts are presented. Two cases were subserosal and one was intramyometrial. All three cases had cystic spaces filled with hyperintense fluid on T1-weighted images, which were surrounded by hypointense tissue on T2-weighted images.
