“…8,9 In women, 3 cases of uterine adenomatoid tumors simulating leiomyoma on CT or MR and 1 case of uterine multilocular cystic adenomatoid tumor described on ultrasonography and MR have been reported. [10][11][12] To our knowledge, no cases of ovarian adenomatoid tumor have been described by an imaging modality. In our case, the rare and relatively large multicystic pattern of the lesion made it detectable on the ultrasonogram, whereas most lesions are small with no large cystic component, making them difficult to detect by an imaging modality.…”

We report the sonographic findings of a rare benign ovarian tumor in a 69-year-old woman. Transvaginal ultrasonography showed a cystic multilocular lesion with a vascularized central solid portion of the left ovary. Surgery revealed an adenomatoid tumor. Adenomatoid tumors are benign lesions of mesothelial origin, usually solid in nature and rarely located in the ovaries. (c) 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound 33:233-236, 2005.

“…This is the first study to show an association between the incidence of uterine AT and iatrogenic immunosuppression. Seven cases of diffuse uterine AT have been reported to date, all as single case reports. Three of the diffuse ATs arose in renal transplant recipients undergoing immunosuppressive therapy, and the possible role of immunosuppression in the pathogenesis of diffuse uterine AT was suggested.…”

“…Los TA generalmente son nodulares, sin embargo, se han descrito casos difusos que infiltran prácticamente todo el miometrio. En la mitad de los reportes que hay en la literatura, estos últimos corresponden a casos en pacientes inmunodeprimidos (2,(21)(22)(23). Algunos autores creen que la variedad difusa podría corresponder a una entidad biológica distinta (24).…”

RESUMENAntecedentes: Los tumores adenomatoides (TA) son poco frecuentes. Se encuentran principalmente en el aparato reproductor femenino y especialmente en el útero. No existen reportes a nivel nacional sobre estos. Objetivos: Describir las características histológicas e inmunohistoquímicas de los TA uterinos. Método: Estudio descriptivo de 32 muestras ingresadas al Servicio de Anatomía Patológica de Clínica Las Condes. Las muestras estudiadas fueron recopiladas entre noviembre de 1999 y noviembre de 2008. Resultados: El diagnóstico de TA fue realizado en 21 histerectomías y 11 miomectomías. En 14 casos se diagnosticaron como lesiones nodulares únicas (43,8%) y en 18 junto a leiomiomas (56,2%). El tamaño promedio de las lesiones únicas fue 2,6 cm, significativamente mayor que aquellas asociadas a leiomiomas. El patrón histológico predominante más frecuente correspondió al tipo angiomatoide (81,3%), seguido por los patrones adenoide (9,4%), sólido (6,3%) y mixto (3%), no se encontraron TA quísticos. El estudio inmunohistoquími-co fue positivo en el 100% de los casos para citoqueratina AE1/AE3, calrretinina, vimentina y D2-40. Fue negativo para CD31 y CEA. Sólo un 6,3% (2 casos) fue positivo para citoqueratina 5/6. Conclusiones: Los TA corresponden a tumores benignos de origen mesotelial. Generalmente su diagnóstico es un hallazgo. Al presentarse en el útero, se confunden generalmente con leiomiomas o se presentan en conjunto con estos. En base a lo anterior el tratamiento de estas lesiones debe ser conservador, bastando con la resección del tumor.PALABRAS CLAVE: Tumor adenomatoide uterino, tumor benigno uterino, inmunohistoquímica, tumor mesotelial SUMMARY Background:The adenomatoid tumors (AT) are rare.

The predominant histologic type most often correspond to angiomatoid (81.3%), followed by adenoid patterns (9.4%), solid (6.3%) and mixed (3%), the cystic pattern was not observed. The
