Abstract:
Uterine adenomyoma is a neoplasm that is composed of endometrial glands and smooth muscle, and this is found in the uterine corpus; however, the glandular component is occasionally of mucin-secreting endocervical type. We describe here a case of uterine adenomyoma of the endocervical type, and this presented in a 38-year-old pregnant woman.
