Adenomyose
This review summarizes recent advancements in understanding adenomyosis pathogenesis, imaging diagnosis limitations and achievements, and conservative and surgical treatment options.

This paper is a narrative overview of advances in understanding and diagnosing uterine adenomyosis over the last decade, covering proposed mechanisms of pathogenesis, the achievements and limitations of imaging (including ultrasound and MRI) for diagnosis, and both conservative and surgical treatment options. The author synthesizes prior literature rather than conducting original human or animal studies, and explicitly notes that no such studies were performed for the contribution. A key theme is that diagnostic and treatment approaches have improved, while imaging methods still have limitations that affect how adenomyosis is assessed. This paper is centrally about endometriosis and/or adenomyosis—specifically adenomyosis—by providing an overview of progress in its pathogenesis, imaging-based diagnosis, and treatment options.
