Résumé
The epidemiological profile of adenomyosis has drastically changed in recent years due to advancements in imaging techniques. Even though adenomyosis is not uncommon in women of childbearing age, we present an intriguing case of a 30-year-old woman with long-standing progressive dysmenorrhea and infertility who had a posterior wall exophytic adenomyomatous polyp with full-thickness pseudo-invasion out of the uterine serosa into the right ovarian endometriotic cyst, mimicking malignancy. After surgical excision, the patient spontaneously conceived and delivered a live-term baby, soon after which she experienced an early recurrence. Clinicians must be aware of the distinctive features of different subtypes of adenomyosis to plan treatment and avoid invasive surgery.
