MRI evaluation for conservative treatment in endometriosis and uterine myoma

Abstract

Eighteen patients with endometriosis or uterine myoma underwent MRI before and after conservative treatment with Danazol (400 mg/day) or Buserelin (900 {mu}g/day) to examine pathological changes. Of 8 patients with endometrial chocolate cyst, 7 patients were given Dazazol for 3 to 7 months, in whom high signal intensity indicative of mass tended to decrease after chemotherapy especially on T2-weighted images. In addition, the area of cyst was reduced by 31% to 100%. In the remaining one patient receiving Buserelin for 8 months, the reduction rate of cyst was 31%. Ten patients with adenomyosis were classified into the group given Danazol for 5 to 15 months (n=4) and the group given Buserelin for 3 to 8 months (n=6). Low intensity area was decreased by 9% to 25% in the Danazol group and by 20% to 69% in the Buserelin group. Uterine area was reduced by 10% to 32% in the Danazol group and by 4.5% to 51% in the Buserelin group. MRI was helpful in the management of these diseases during conservative treatment. (N.K.).
