Popis: Uterine cervical hematoma is rare. A 51-year-old woman underwent pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for uterine tumor survey. A large hematoma with cystic and solid lesions was observed in the uterine cervix. Follow-up MRI after 5 days revealed that the hematoma had decreased in volume. Pathological examination after surgery suggested there was usual-type endocervical adenocarcinoma (UEA) in the lower cervix and lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia (LEGH) in the upper cervix, along with the cervical hematoma. The findings of this case suggest that the uterine cervical hematoma was secondary to either UEA or LEGH.
Highlights • Uterine cervical hematoma is rare. • In the present case, the hematoma was considered to be caused by either the usual-type endocervical adenocarcinoma or lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia. • The exact mechanism of the hematoma formation was unclear. • Usual-type endocervical adenocarcinoma and lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia can be considered as differential diagnosis in cases of cervical hematoma.
