Objective: Deep endometriosis is now referred to as adenomyosis externa, whereas adenomyosis is once known as endometriosis interna. Lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A (KDM1A, commonly LSD1) is a lysine demethylase that targets histone and non-histone proteins. This study aimed to assess how KDM1A affects the migration, invasion, and proliferation of adenomyosis-derived endometrial stromal cells (ESCs).

In the further course, catamenial bleeding occurred as an unusual symptom, and the suspicion of a fistula formation was postulated.

Adenomyosis and endometriosis are common gynecological disorders, but their pathophysiology is still under debate. The aim of this review is to discuss whether adenomyosis and endometriosis represent two different entities or different phenotypes of a single disease. We searched PubMed electronic databases published between January 2000 and April 2020.
