JF - Journal of Clinical Pathology JO - J Clin Pathol SP - 278 LP - 280 DO - 10.1136/jcp.48.3.278 VL - 48 IS - 3 AU - M Jeffers AU - C Cowan AU - C B Lunan Y1 - 1995/03/01 UR - http://jcp.bmj.com/content/48/3/278.abstract N2 - Degenerative changes are encountered relatively frequently in uterine leiomyomas. Morphologic changes within leiomyomas, particularly necrosis and alterations in cellularity, have been described following treatment with gonadotrophin releasing hormone analogue, but the effects of this form of treatment on the morphology of the normal myometrium are less well documented. A case is reported of a 42 year old woman with a history of menorrhagia in whom a combination of degenerative and iatrogenic changes resulted in a histological appearance resembling diffuse leiomyomatosis.
