(23) Gaspar Fuentes et al24 classify ectopic pancreas into 4 types: type I composed of all pancreatic elements (complete heterotopia); type II composed of ducts only (canalicular heterotopia), which when surrounded by smooth muscle is also referred to as
adenomyoma (25); type III with only acini (exocrine heterotopia); and type IV with only clusters of neuroendocrine cells (endocrine heterotopia).
Uterine adenomyosis and
adenomyoma: the surgical approach.
Inguinal endometriosis (often reported as endometrial tissue in the groin,
adenomyoma in the groin, and
adenomyoma of the round ligament).

adenomyoma. Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol 2014; 53:459-465.
There was no correlation between recurrence and the following factors including patient's age, menarche age, gravidity, parity, CA125 level, ovarian lesions, menopausal status, combined benign gynecological conditions (such as myoma and
adenomyoma) and endometrial abnormalities, and surgical approach or surgical staging (all P > 0.05).
Pathological examination revealed gastric
adenomyoma, which was composed of cysts and glandular structures lined by cuboidal to columnar epithelium surrounded by hypertrophic smooth muscle bundles.
Others included
adenomyoma (9.09%, n = 1), papillary hyperplasia (9.09%, n = 1), cholesterolosis (9.09%, n = 1) and xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (9.09%, n = 1) (Table 5).
(1) atypical polypoid
adenomyoma that contains an architecturally complex and cytological atypical glandular component, whereas adenomyomatous polyp has simple glands and no significant atypia [6];
Furthermore, due to the few diagnosed cases of benign lesions of the BG in human pathology (HELLER & BEAN, 2014), probably associated with under reporting (SANTOS et al., 2006), the occurrence of benign neoplastic growths of this gland, such as nodular hyperplasia, adenoma,
adenomyoma, and papilloma might be more reduced when compared with malignant neoplasia of the BG, including adenoid cystic carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma, and vulvar leiomyosarcoma (HELLER & BEAN, 2014; LEE et al., 2015).
(3) Bartholin's gland lesions can be classified as cysts, abscess, hyperplasia, adenoma,
adenomyoma, carcinoma, and soft tissue mesenchymal lesions.
This work describes a rare case of serous carcinoma coexistence with atypical polypoid
adenomyoma (APA).
