- DIE is characterized by nodules infiltrating the rectosigmoid, uterosacral ligaments (USL), vaginal fornix, rectovaginal septum (RVS) and/or bladder. [1] Preferred examination The initial workup begins with a history and physical examination.[emedicine.com]
- Preferred Examination: Initial workup begins with a history and physical examination. These can be nonspecific but occasionally, tender nodular masses can be palpated on pelvic examination, representing fibrotic implants in the cul-de-sac.[web.archive.org]
- […] background, we evaluated the demographic variables, clinical presentation and intraoperative findings of twenty three consecutive infertile women with intraoperative diagnosis of adenomyosis, having been misdiagnosed as leiomyomata during infertility workup[pjms.com.pk]

Etiology
- However, clinicians rarely consider adenomyosis as an independent etiology in the differential diagnosis of uterine disorders.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- The etiology of AS is rarely known and seems to be multifactorial [ 19 ]. Several endoscopic dilatation techniques can be used [ 20 ] to treat AS.[karger.com]
