The Investigation and Management of Adenomyosis in Women Who Wish to Improve or Preserve Fertility

Abstract EN

The management of adenomyosis remains a great challenge to practicing gynaecologists.

Until recently, hysterectomy has been the only definitive treatment in women who have completed child bearing.

A number of nonsurgical and minimally invasive, fertility-sparing surgical treatment options have recently been developed.

This review focuses on three aspects of management, namely, (1) newly introduced nonsurgical treatments; (2) management strategies of reproductive failures associated with adenomyosis; and (3) surgical approaches to the management of cystic adenomyoma.
