Imaging evaluation of uterine masses is important to assess the type of lesion and to target surgery, if surgical excision is necessary. This can be decisive in fertile women with benign masses resembling malignancies, in order to avoid overtreatment. In this study, the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearance of cotyledonoid dissecting leiomyoma of the uterus, a rare benign variant of leiomyoma mimicking malignancy, is presented.
子宫肿块的影像学评估对于确定病变类型以及必要时指导手术切除至关重要。对于患有类似恶性肿瘤的良性肿块的育龄女性而言，这一点可能起到决定性作用，从而避免过度治疗。在本研究中，我们展示了子宫叶状分割性平滑肌瘤的磁共振成像（MRI）表现，该肿瘤是一种罕见的良性平滑肌瘤变体，易被误诊为恶性肿瘤。
