Uterine adenofibroma and endometrial stromal sarcoma associated with tamoxifen therapy: MR findings
Abstract
Tamoxifen therapy may result in a variety of endometrial proliferative lesions, including adenofibroma and endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS). This report describes the MR findings of adenofibroma and ESS associated with tamoxifen therapy. When MRI demonstrates a uterine mass appearing as a heterogeneous mass in the endometrium or myometrium, adenofibroma and ECC must be considered as rare, but possible, diagnoses.
