Abstract
A uterine adenomyoma of endocervical type was presented histopathologically in a 44-year-old woman. She had a mural tumor of the uterine endocervix, w hich showed a well-circumscribed margin and multiple cysts filled with muci n. Histologically, the tumor was composed of a proliferation of endocervica l glands and smooth muscle. The glandular epithelial components were cystic and occasionally papillary, but neither component showed cytological atypi a. A differential diagnosis of the uterine endocervical tumor should includ e adenomyoma of endocervical type.
