Summary[edit]

Description

Cross section through the wall of a hysterectomy specimen of a 30-year-old woman who reported chronic pelvic pain and abnormal uterine bleeding. The endometrial surface is at the top of the image, and the serosa is at the bottom.

I think most cases of adenomyosis can be reliably diagnosed grossly by an experienced prosector examining a fixed specimen. Following formalin fixation, the soft adenomyotic areas stand out more strikingly against the firmer myometrium.
