Description
Summary:The present study was conducted to identify endometrial and myometrial lesions coexisting with adenomyosis, and to evaluate the clinicopathological characteristics of endometrial adenocarcinomas associated with adenomyosis. A retrospective analysis of the resected uterine specimens of 319 patients with adenomyosis admitted between January 1, 2014 and August 1, 2017 was performed. The endometrial and myometrial lesions coexisting with adenomyosis were evaluated. The clinicopathological prognostic factors, including tumor grade, myometrial invasion, lymphovascular space involvement, lymph node invasion, pathological stage and recurrence, were analysed. For data analysis, the Chi-squared test was used and a P-value of
