title: MRI of cervical adenocarcinoma with cystic components.
abstract: We encountered two cases of endocervical well-differentiated adenocarcinoma with cystic components. Magnetic resonance findings of the first case showed cystic lesion with enhanced mural nodule in the uterine cervix. The second case showed multicystic lesion in the uterine cervix. The cystic walls were thickening in the postcontrast T1-weighted image. The cervical adenocarcinoma with cystic components should be added to one of differential diagnosis of the uterine cervical cystic lesion.
