Endometrial polyps and adenomyosis link

"The presence of multiple endometrial polyps seemed to be associated with the presence of adenomyosis (p=0.016). The presence of cervical polyps was significantly associated only with presence of adenomyosis (p=0.002). The results clearly demonstrate an association between adenomyosis and uterine polyps. The pathogenetic role of adenomyosis in the development of polyps should therefore be investigated further." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21470766
