title: [Adenomatoid tumor].
abstract: Adenomatoid tumour is a neoplastic process of discussed origin, but the immunohistochemical phenotype leads a mesothelial derivation. The preferential site of origin is the genital apparatus of both sexes, however extragenital cases have been described. The histological pattern varies from tubular formation, to solid growth, to cystic areas. In the present report we described a case of Adenomatoid tumour of the uterus body in a 46 years old patient.
