Abstract:
Endosalpingiosis is characterized by the presence of glands lined by benign tubal-type epithelium outside the fallopian tube. It is usually an incidental finding and rarely occurs as a tumor-like mass lesion. Here, we describe the magnetic resonance imaging findings of endosalpingiosis that presented as a paraovarian multicystic lesion. It exhibited iso to low intensity on T1-weighted images and inhomogeneous high intensity on T2-weighted images. The septa presented relatively iso to slight high intensity on T2-weighted images and strong contrast enhancement on dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging. Endosalpingiosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis in cases of paraovarian multicystic lesions along the uterine serosa.
