This retrospective study investigated whether previous uterine surgical interventions serve as risk factors for the subsequent development of uterine leiomyomas and adenomyosis. The researchers analyzed medical records to determine the prevalence of these conditions in patients with a history of prior uterine procedures compared to those without such histories. The findings indicated that a history of uterine surgery is associated with an increased risk of developing both leiomyomas and adenomyosis later in life. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis, examining its potential etiological link to prior surgical trauma on the uterus.
