Adenofibroma in the Uterine Cervix Manifesting as Multilocular Cystic Lesions

Endometrioid adenofibroma of ovary: A case report and review of literature

RATIONALE

Endometrioid adenofibroma is a benign epithelial neoplasm of the ovary, most of which are often unilateral. The symptoms of endometrioid adenofibroma are often nonspecific and misleading. Therefore, a full understanding of the characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment methods of this disease is of great importance. In this study, we report a 34-year-old woman who was found with an unidentified mass on the right ovary during the physical examination 3 years ago with nosymptoms or signs.

PATIENT CONCERNS

A 34-year-old Chinese female was found with an unidentified 6 cm mass on the right ovary for 3 years that presented with no symptoms or signs.

DIAGNOSIS

Pelvic ultrasound revealed a 6 cm cystic solid mixed mass on the right ovary. Through histological and immunohistochemical examinations, the tumor mass was finally diagnosed as endometrioid adenofibroma of ovary.

INTERVENTIONS

To confirm the diagnosis, the ovarian tumor was laparoscopically resected.

OUTCOMES

The patient returned to hospital after 3 months with no recurrence or postoperative complications.

LESSONS

Endometrioid adenofibroma is a benign epithelial neoplasm of the ovary. Complete surgical resection is required and rare cases can recur. Postsurgical pathologic and immunohistochemical testing can confirm a diagnosis of endometrioid adenofibroma. It is important to understand of the key points of differential diagnosis of the disease due to the different prognosis and clinical treatment.

Imaging Features of Carcinosarcoma Arising from Adenofibroma of the Uterus: A Case Report

BACKGROUND

Adenofibroma is a benign tumor composed histologically of epithelial elements and mesenchymal stroma. Carcinosarcoma is a malignant neoplasm that contains elements of carcinoma and sarcoma. Carcinosarcoma arising from adenofibroma of the uterus has never been reported in the literature in English language. Case Presentaion: We report a case of a 56-year-old woman who complained vaginal spotting persisting for several months. We described here for the first time a case of malignant transformation of uterine endometrial adenofibroma into carcinosarcoma that was depicted as a multilocular cystic lesion with enhancing solid portions and stalk-like structure between the myometrium and endometrial mass.
