This study evaluated the clinical and demographic characteristics of 23 infertile women who underwent surgery for presumed uterine fibroids but were ultimately diagnosed with adenomyosis. The researchers analyzed patient histories, intraoperative findings, and histopathology, revealing that most patients had secondary infertility and a history of prior uterine procedures or abortions. Key results indicated a strong association between adenomyosis and proximal tubal occlusion, with co-existing endometriosis noted in only a small fraction of cases. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis — specifically its presentation as a misdiagnosed cause of infertility and its frequent co-occurrence with uterine fibroids and tubal blockage.

Abstract

Objectives: The aim of this study is to conclude the demographic design and clinical performance of 23 barren ladies along with intraoperative analysis of adenomyosis and after that histopathologic authentication. Methodology: An evaluation of 23 sequential barren women who experienced surgical procedure because of before operation wrong judgment for uterine fibroids in a 5 years’ timeframe. Results: The age range of the patients was 26 to 47 years (mean 37.3). Out of 23 patients, 21.7% (5) patients had a past history of delivery and 78.3% (18) patients were underwent through abortion(s) in the past. Primary sterility found in 21.7% and secondary in 78.3%. Past history of (i) antenatal processes comprising of dilatation and curettage in 73.9% (17) patients, (ii) myomectomy in 21.7% (5) patients and (iii) adhesiolysis in 13.1% (3) patients. Pre-surgery hysterosalpingogram with consensual tubal patency indicated 8.7% (2) patients and 73.9% (17) patients had mutual tubal blockage. Perceived the fallopian tube’s individual patency in 17.4% (4) patients. Cornual blockages were bump into 88.2% (15) patients amongst the 17 bilateral tubal blockage patients. The clinical presentation modes were having 100% abdominopelvic mass, 82.6% dymenorrhoea, 60.9% menorrhagia, 47.8% dyspareunia and in 34.8% cases were metrorrhagia. Intraoperatively adenomyosis confronted were include 56.5% (13) patients with diffuse adenomyosis, 30.4% (7) patients with multiple focal adenomyosis and 13.1% (3) patients with unifocal adenomyosis. Out of 23 patients, co-existing uterine fibroid were coming across in 73.9% (17) patients and coexisting endometriosis in 8.7% (2) patients. Momentous pelvic linkage was encounter in to 30.4% (7) patients at surgery. Conclusion: Adenomyosis is expressively link along proximal tubal occlusion in barren women and wants to subsist with irrelevant uterine fibroids. Key Words: Anticipated Pathophysiologic, Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, Proximal Tubal, Dymenorrhoea, Immunologic.
