Infiltrating adenomyosis of the cervix with features of a low-grade stromal sarcoma: a case report and a literature review.

Adenomyosis is a common, non-neoplastic, chronic gynecologic disorder that is detected in 5% to 70% of hysterectomy specimens. It is characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial glands and stroma within the myometrium, and it occurs mostly in late reproductive age women. Adenomyosis has a propensity to present in the uterine fundus and is rarely seen in the cervix. At present, the most reliable way to diagnose adenomyosis is by pathologic examination of the hysterectomy specimens. Herein, we report a case of infiltrating adenomyosis in the cervix with unusual clinical and pathologic findings.
