Adenofibromas of the uterine cervix, which are classified as benign tumors of mixed epithelium and mesenchymal cells, are extremely rare. Most common symptom is usually abnormal genital bleeding. It is very difficult to diagnose preoperatively. Recommended method of treatment is total hysterectomy, because it usually recurs. We experienced a case of adenofibroma of the uterine cervix with increased CA125, so report it with a review of the literature.

Uterine adenofibroma is an extremely rare benign biphasic neoplasm that is classified into mixed m?llerian tumor. This mass lesion appears to be clinical and histologically benign but it should be differentiated from other malignant neoplasms of uterus. We have experienced a case of uterine adenofibroma in a 53-year-old woman and report this case with a brief review of literature.

Ovarian leiomyoma is a rare mesenchymal tumor, accounting for only 1% of all benign ovarian neoplasm. Most patients are asymptomatic and the tumors are usually found incidentally during operation or at autopsies. Ovarian adenofibroma is a rare benign tumor which originates from the germinal lining and the stroma of the ovary. This tumor may be solid, semisolid or cystic, depending on the relative amount of the epithelial and stromal component. We have experienced a case of ovarian leiomyoma accompanied with ovarian serous adenofibroma in a 42-year-old woman and report this case with a brief review of literature.

5.Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma Arising from Adenofibroma in a Patient with Endometriosis of the Ovary.
Journal of Pathology and Translational Medicine 2016;50(2):155-159
Ovarian clear cell adenocarcinomas (CCACs) are frequently associated with endometriosis and, less often with clear cell adenofibromas (CCAFs). We encountered a case of ovarian CCAC arising from benign and borderline adenofibromas of the clear cell and endometrioid types with endometriosis in a 53-year-old woman. Regions of the adenofibromas showed transformation to CCAC and regions of the endometriosis showed atypical endometriotic cysts. This case demonstrates that CCAC can arise from CCAF or endometriosis.

Toremifene is an anti-estrogen which has been shown to be effective in the treatment of breast cancer, and is thought to be a less uterotrophic agent than tamoxifen. The risk assessment concerning endometrial cancer has been inconclusive because of its rare use up to the mid-1990s. We report a case of an adenosarcoma, which is a very rare type of uterine malignancy, after toremifene treatment for 5 years in a breast cancer patient. After 1 year of toremifene use, the patient had a benign Mullerian adenofibroma. After an additional 4 years of toremifene treatment, the endometrial polypoid lesion was transformed into a Mullerian adenosarcoma. Although toremifene is a promising anti-estrogenic agent in the treatment of breast cancer patients, clinicians should not neglect the possibility of a uterine malignancy.

Biliary adenofibroma is a rare tumor with a bile duct origin characterized by a complex tubulocystic non-mucin secreting biliary epithelium with abundant fibrous stroma. The MRI features of biliary adenofibroma are not well established. The authors encountered two patients with biliary adenofibroma and reviewed the literature focusing on the MRI findings. A well-circumscribed multicystic tumor with septal enhancement and no intrahepatic bile duct communication may be the characteristic MRI findings of biliary adenofibroma.

Adenofibroma is an extremely rare benign mullerian mixed tumor composed of epithelium and mesenchymal cells. Most uterine adenofibromas occur in the endometrium, but they rarely protrude into the vagina. To date, only a few such cases with the imaging findings have been reported. Therefore, we report here on the sonographic and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings of a case of endometrial adenofibroma protruding into the vaginal cavity in a 28-year-old woman. The uterine adenofibroma appeared as a large intracavitary echogenic mass containing multiple small internal cysts, and it was distending the vaginal cavity on transrectal sonography. T2- weighted MR images showed a large intracavitary mass with heterogeneous high signal intensity protruding into the vaginal cavity. On gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted MR images, heterogeneous septa-like enhancement was noted in the mass. Although uterine adenofibroma is extremely rare, adenofibroma can be suggested as a possible diagnosis when an intracavitary uterine mass, with multiple internal small cystic components and enhancing septa-like structures, is protruding into the vaginal cavity on imaging.

OBJECTIVE: We wanted to assess the MR imaging findings of ovarian cystadenofibroma and cystadenocarcinofibroma, and we wanted to find clues for making the differential diagnosis between them. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The MR images of 12 pathologically proven cystadenofibromas and two cystadenocarcinofibromas were reviewed, with a focus on the internal architecture, signal intensity and enhancement. RESULTS: All the tumors appeared as multilocular cysts, except for a single unilocular cystic mass and a single solid mass. The previously reported characteristic MR findings of cystadenofibroma (a multilocular cystic mass with a T2-dark-signal-intensity solid component containing small cystic locules) were found in only 43% of the tumors (6/14). Diffuse or partial thickening of the cyst wall with T2-dark signal intensity without a definite solid component was as common as the previous reported findings (6/14). Two cystadenocarcinofibromas showed more prominent solid portions with higher T2-signal intensities and stronger enhancement than did the cystadenofibromas. CONCLUSION: Diffuse or partial thickening of the cyst wall with dark-signal-intensity in multilocular cystic masses may suggest ovarian cystadenofibroma, and this type of appearance may be as common as the previously reported characteristic appearance. A prominent solid component with a higher T2-signal intensity and strong enhancement are the typical findings of cystadenocarcinofibroma.
