Objective: Adenomyosis is a entity characterized by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma embedded within the myometrium without apparent contact with the endo-myometrial junction. As the diagnosis of adenomyosis is based on histological examination, the condition is best described in women at the time of hysterectomy.

Material and Methods: We evaluated results of 109 hysterectomized patients retrospectively. Age, parity, menopausal status and indication of hysterectomy were compared between adenomyosis positive and negative patients according to histological findings. P value under 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Results: The mean of age patients with adenomyosis were 55. Parity and abnormal uterine bleeding were associated factors with adenomyosis (p<0.05). 

Concluison: Our study demonstrated that the prevalence of adenomyosis at hysterectomy was 29.4%. Adenomyosis is more frequent among women reporting abnormal uterine bleeding and with high parity.

Giriş: Adenomyosis, endometrial gland ve stromanın endometriumla ilişkisiz bir şekilde myometrium içine gömülmesidir. Tanısı histolojik incelemeye dayandığı için, bu durum en iyi histerektomi materyallerinin incelenmesi ile belirlenmektedir. 

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışmada histerektomi olmuş 109 hastanın sonuçları retrospektif olarak incelendi. Yaş, parite, menapozal durum ve histerektomi endikasyonları adenomyosis olan ve olmayan grup arasında karşılaştırıldı. P değerinin 0.05 altında olması istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edildi. 

Bulgular: Adenomyosis olan olguların ortalama yaşı 55 idi. Parite ve anormal uterin kanama adenomyosis olan olgularda daha yüksek idi (p<0.05).

Sonuç: Bu çalışmada histerektomi materyallerindeki adenomyosis oranı % 29.4 olarak görüldü. Anormal uterin kanaması olan ve parite sayısı fazla olan olgularda adenomyosis oranı daha sık görülmüştür.
