Abstract: Adenomyosis is a common hormone-dependent and inflammatory disease in women of childbearing age, manifested with progressive dysmenorrhea, menorrhagia, infertility and uterine enlargement. The morbidity increases year by year and shows a younger trend. Surgical treatment of adenomyosis is often performed due to ineffectiveness or unwillingness of drug therapy and non-surgical techniques(including uterine artery embolization, high-intensity focused ultrasound therapy and radiofrequency ablation). Specific surgical strategy needs to be formulated individually according to the patients’ age, clinical symptoms, fertility requirements and the type and scope of lesions. At present, surgical procedures include hysterectomy, conservative adenomyomectomy/cytoreductive surgery, hysteroscopic transcervical resection of endometrium/endometrial ablation, and so on. This article reviews the applicable population, key points of operation and maintenance treatment scheme of various surgical procedures, in order to ensure individualized treatment and life-long management of the disease, maximize the curative effects and improve fertility.

Key words: Adenomyosis, Hysterectomy, Adenomyomectomy, Cytoreductive surgery, Hysteroscopy
