CT characteristics of a uterus-like mass in the sigmoid mesocolon

A uterus-like mass is a rare, benign extra-uterine tumour composed of smooth muscle and endometrium. The majority of uterus-like masses occur in the ovary. Rarely, uterus-like masses occur in the broad ligament, small bowel, small bowel mesentery or uterine cervix. Here, we report a case of a uterus-like mass in the sigmoid mesocolon. A well-defined, markedly enhanced soft-tissue mass with central cystic change and haemorrhage was observed on CT. The current report describes the CT characteristics of this sigmoid mesocolon uterus-like mass together with the differential diagnoses.
