Adenofibroma is a rare benign biphasic neoplasm that is classified into the mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tumor group. We report the case of a 42-year-old woman with adenofibroma of the endometrium protruding into the vagina. Transvaginal ultrasonography revealed the tumor as an intravaginal mass containing multiple cystic components. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a heterogeneous high-intensity mass filling the vaginal cavity on T2-weighted imaging, with a low-contrast enhanced septum identified within the mass on gadolinium-enhanced, T1-weighted imaging. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed a heterogeneous low-attenuating multicystic mass filling the vaginal cavity. Although preoperative diagnosis of this rare tumor is very difficult, the combination of MRI, CT, and ultrasonography offers a useful diagnostic tool.

Early pregnancy loss (EPL), also known as miscarriage or spontaneous abortion, makes up 15-20% of all clinically recognized pregnancies. EPL is a broad term that includes intrauterine pregnancies (IUPs) with findings that suggest the pregnancy may not progress or definitely will not progress; pregnancies with a gestational sac (GS) in the lower endometrial cavity or endocervical canal in the process of expulsion; residual pregnancy tissue or persistent GS; and complete passage of the GS without residual tissue. This document addresses medication management of EPL in which the complete passage of the GS has not yet occurred, including pregnancies concerning for and diagnostic of EPL (sometimes called "missed abortion") and EPL in progress.
