“…Several terms have been used to define these large cysts including adenomyotic cyst [6][7][8], cystic adenomyoma [9][10][11], and cystic adenomyosis [12,13]. According to Takeuchi et al [14], adenomyoma is a neoplastic tumor classified as a benign mixed epithelial-nonepithelial tumor. The designation of adenomyoma should be reserved for polypoid lesions in which the stromal component is almost exclusively composed of smooth muscle.…”

“…The juvenile form is considered a congenital disease that develops from duplication and persistence of ductal m€ ullerian tissue in a critical area, close to the root of the round ligament, possibly related to gubernaculum dysfunction [17]. Other authors [3,14] have described both the juvenile and adult forms as of acquired origin, probably related to a cystic variant of adenomyosis.…”

Adenomyotic cysts are uncommon findings, usually in the context of diffuse adenomyosis and ,5 mm in diameter. Herein we report a 4.5-cm adenomyotic cyst in a 25-year-old nulliparous woman with severe dysmenorrhea and pelvic pain. Transvaginal ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well-circumscribed hypoechogenic mass in the posterior uterine wall, well separated from the uterine cavity. Pathologic analysis demonstrated that the cyst was lined with endometrial epithelium and stroma and was surrounded by smooth muscle hyperplasia. In the literature, we found 30 reports of cysts with similar characteristics. Because this cyst has not been clearly defined, it has been called by various names including adenomyotic cyst, cystic adenomyosis, and cystic adenomyoma. We believe this lesion should not be called an adenomyoma, but is more correctly called an adenomyotic cyst or, depending on age at onset, a juvenile adenomyotic cyst.

Adenomyosis is the presence of endometrial glands and stroma in the context of the myometrium, with adjacent smooth muscle hyperplasia. It may be diffuse or cystic. Adenomyotic cysts of the uterus are extremely rare. A 31 years old nulligravida woman presented to our OPD with complaints of severe dysmenorrhea and back pain since 8 months. Transvaginal ultrasound revealed retroverted uterus with diffuse adenomyosis with intramyometrial endometriotic cysts in both cornual areas, both adnexa showing multiple small endometriotic cysts. On Laparoscopy – cystic masses around 5x4cm was found near the cornua and anterior uterine wall, which were excised and diagnosed as adenomyotic cyst on histopathology.
