Three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasonography is as accurate as MRI for diagnosing adenomyosis and leiomyoma and is recommended for routine clinical practice due to its accessibility and lower cost.

Abstract

Background; A frequent benign gynaecological condition known as adenomyosis affects premenopausal women and is characterised by increasing endometrial expansion and invasion of the myometrium underneath, Aim and objectives; to contrast diagnostic accuracy of histopathology and 3D transvaginal ultrasound in detection of adenomyosis, Subjects &techniques: The research was happened during the period from September 2020 to September 2022 at El Hussein Maternity Hospital and Tokh central Hospital. A Cross sectional study was done on100 patients had been recruited from females presenting to outpatient clinic at El Hussein MaternityHospital and Tokh central Hospital planned to undergo hysterectomy for adenomyosis based on inclusion/ exclusion criteria, Result; There, Conclusion; Our research's findings showed that, as preoperative diagnostic tool, 3D transvaginal ultrasonography is as greatly accurate asMRIin identifying adenomyosis & leiomyoma. it is advised to use 3Dultrasonography in routine clinical practise as it is more accessible, less expensive, less time-consuming, & easier method, choosing appropriate course of action, & individually managing each studied case to attain best therapeutic rates.
