February 1, 2024 updated by: Aya nour Elzanaty, Assiut University

Application of the Revised Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA) Criteria to Diagnose Adenomyosis in Fertile Women

  1. To estimate the prevalence of adenomyosis in fertile women aged 18-30 years using the revised MUSA ultrasound criteria.
  2. To evaluate clinical risk factors that are associated with adenomyosis diagnosis in this population

Conditions

Detailed Description

Adenomyosis is a benign condition characterized by the presence endometrial glands and stroma within the myometrium. Its prevalence varies from 5-70%. The definitive diagnosis of adenomyosis is based mainly on histological assessment of hysterectomy specimens. This led to a concept that adenomyosis affects only parous women between 35-50 years who complain of dysmenorrhea and heavy menstrual bleeding. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can detect adenomyosis with a sensitivity of 80%. Transvaginal ultrasound using the revised Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment (MUSA) criteria can detect adenomyosis non-invasively at a lower cost. Such advancements in imaging techniques allow studying the prevalence of the disease in wider range of population including young women.
