The endometrial epithelium and stromal cells can be focally, and rarely diffusely, replaced by other Müllerian-type epithelia.

This chapter describes metaplastic changes in the endometrium, stating that the endometrial epithelium can be focally—and only seldom diffusely—replaced by other Müllerian-type epithelium, with a similar possibility for endometrial stromal cells. It frames these observations as histopathologic patterns rather than reporting new experiments or clinical outcomes. The text provides minimal methodological detail and does not specify study population characteristics or quantitative results. This paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract
