Patient's question:
I am 30 years old this year. During my physical examination, the doctor told me that I might need to undergo a detailed gynecological examination, mainly focusing on the uterus. Please ask: What is the medical basis for the interventional treatment of adenomyosis of the uterus?Doctor's answer:
The mechanism of interventional treatment for adenomyosis.1. The ectopic endometrium is entirely located within the uterine muscle layer. In color Doppler ultrasound, the lesions of adenomyosis appear as rich blood flow with high echo, surrounded by spot-like and short-stick low-speed blood flow. MRI shows the ectopic endometrium as high signal, with or without microcysts of bleeding, encased in fibrotic uterine muscle fibers, demonstrating its blood supply. Microscopic structures of the uterus reveal its blood supply, which is provided by small branches of the uterine arteries. This provides the vascular anatomical basis for interventional treatment.
2. The ectopic endometrium originates from the basal layer of the endometrium, mostly in the fibrotic stage, and is sensitive to cerebral edema and hypoxia. This provides the pathological basis for interventional treatment.
