Correlation between MRI Features of Adenomyosis and Clinical Presentation.
Diagnostics 2023 August 25
This study aimed to explore the correlation between MRI features, clinical risk factors, and symptoms associated with adenomyosis. Overall, 112 patients with pathologically confirmed adenomyosis were included in this retrospective study. MRI findings and clinical presentation, including visual analog scale (VAS) scores, cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) and hemoglobin levels, and parity, were analyzed. Additionally, 131 patients undergoing active surveillance were included to validate the MRI parameters and clinical presentations. Associations between MRI parameters and adenomyosis-related clinical presentations were assessed. Patients with operated adenomyosis were younger and had larger lesions, which were more frequently of the diffuse type and posterior localization, coexisting ovarian endometriosis, deep infiltrating endometriosis, myometrial cysts, and diffusion restriction than the non-operated lesions ( p < 0.05). Patients with operated adenomyosis also exhibited higher VAS scores and CA-125 levels, and nulliparity was more common in this group ( p < 0.05). In contrast, patients with non-operated adenomyosis showed a higher frequency of entire localization and fibroids ( p < 0.05). Among the MRI parameters, size and classification were associated with the VAS and CA-125 levels. Myometrial cysts were associated with CA-125 levels. Classification was also associated with hemoglobin levels, and posterior localization was associated with parity. We identified a significant correlation between MRI features and clinical presentation in patients with adenomyosis.
