Abstract

The magnetic resonance (MR) appearances of three cases of atypical polypoid adenomyoma are reported. The signal intensity of the tumor was similar to that of adenomyosis on T2-weighted MR Imaging (MRI). On contrast-enhanced study, irregular enhancement was seen in hyperintense areas on T2-weighted images. Atypical polypoid adenomyoma can be characterized as a hypointense polypoid mass with hyperintense foci on T2-weighted MR images, resembling the appearance of adenomyosis.
