Abstract
A case of florid endocervical glandular hyperplasia with pyloric gland meta plasia is described. MR images showed multiple and conjugated cysts in the uterine cervix, which suggested adenoma malignum. A postoperative examinati on revealed florid but definitely benign endocervical glandular hyperplasia . Hitherto described radiologic features considered suggestive of adenoma m alignum are not necessarily specific and can be a diagnostic pitfall.
