AI-generated summary by claude@2026-06+body, 2026-06-08

Cystic adenomyosis, a rare uterine lesion diagnosed non-invasively by imaging, should be considered in refractory dysmenorrhea and can be classified for better understanding.

AI-generated deep summary by claude@2026-06, 2026-06-09

This chapter reviews rare cystic uterine lesions that are often classified as variants of adenomyosis, focusing on how they are diagnosed and reported. It describes how ultrasound and MRI enable non-invasive diagnosis and highlights that cystic variant adenomyosis should be suspected in cases of refractory dysmenorrhea, while noting that the cystic form is often amenable to surgical treatment. A key caveat is that the chapter emphasizes confusion in terminology across the literature and proposes standardized classification and uniform reporting, but it does so as a framework rather than reporting new empirical results. This paper is centrally about endometriosis and/or adenomyosis — it is specifically about cystic (myometrial) adenomyosis and its imaging-based diagnosis and reporting.
