Abstract

Endometrial cancer arising from adenomyosis (EC-AIA) is extremely rare, and the typical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of EC-AIA have not been established. We report a case of EC-AIA that was detected preoperatively on MRI and conduct a literature review of the MRI findings of EC-AIA. Keywords: Endometrial cancer, Uterine cancer, Adenomyosis, Magnetic resonance imaging
