Table 3.

The prevalences of endometriosis in adenomyosis and vice versa as determined on the basis of arbitrary detection limits with respect to the thickness of the junctional zone at ≥8, ≥10 and ≥12 mm, respectively

Prevalence of endometriosis in adenomyosis
JZ thickness	n	%
≥8 mm	50/66	75.8
≥10 mm	44/57	77.2
≥12 mm	33/42	78.6

Prevalence of adenomyosis in endometriosis
JZ thickness	n	%
≥8 mm	52/56	92.9
≥10 mm	44/56	78.6
≥12 mm	33/56	58.9

Prevalence of endometriosis in "visualized" adenomyosis and vice versa
	n	%
Endometriosis in visualized adenomyosis	54/67	80.6
Visualized adenomyosis in endometriosis	51/56	91.1

In “visualized” adenomyosis, the diagnosis is based upon a thickness of the JZ of ≥12 mm and criteria characteristic of adenomyosis below this limit of detection
