| Abstrakt: | Acute urinary retention caused by uterine incarceration due to adenomyosis is a rare phenomenon with limited documented cases. This report details the case of a 38-year-old female with acute urinary retention. A pelvic MRI revealed an enlarged retroverted uterus with a mass on the posterior left of the myometrium, indicative of adenomyosis. The size and anatomical location of the mass suggested uterine incarceration with direct pressure on the urinary bladder neck, leading to urinary retention. The patient underwent total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, and adhesiolysis. Subsequent follow-ups at one and three months post-surgery showed the resolution of urinary symptoms, underscoring the importance of considering adenomyosis as a potential cause of urinary retention in women with lower urinary tract symptoms. Timely recognition and appropriate intervention are crucial for mitigating complications and improving outcomes in these patients, as illustrated in this case.
