A benign tumor made up of glandular tissue mixed with smooth muscle, sometimes associated with adenomyosis.
From Greek 'aden' (gland) + 'mys' (muscle) + '-oma' (tumor). This term describes a specific type of benign neoplasm where glandular and muscular components are combined.
Adenomyomas are often found in the uterus and can be either separate tumors or extensions of the adenomyosis condition—they're one of those medical conditions where the boundary between 'disease' and 'tumor' gets a little blurry.
