Adenomyosis, a condition often associated with pregnancy, is difficult to diagnose during gestation and was retrospectively reviewed in 31 reported cases, with two new cases presented that were revealed by obstetrical complications including uterine rupture and ectopic pregnancy.

Abstract

Adenomyosis of the uterus is a frequent disorder often associated with pregnancy. Diagnosis is difficult during pregnancy and usually is made after an obstetrical complication. In a review of the literature from 1904 to 1994, only 31 cases of obstetrical complications related to adenomyosis have been reported. We report two cases revealed by obstetrical complications: one causing spontaneous rupture of the uterus during labor in a primiparous woman and the other with cornual ectopic pregnancy diagnosed, due to an episode of massive intraperitoneal bleeding.
