Abstract

         Nabothian cysts are non-malignant lesions that occur on the cervix and affect a large percentage of reproductive aged women. They usually occur because of childbirth or minor trauma; most of the time, they are small and asymptomatic and require no treatment. However, large nabothian cysts may vary in appearance and even resemble malignant tumors. Consequently, in order to rule out malignancy, a biopsy is advised. The greatest valuable imaging modalities for cervical cystic lesions are MRI and transvaginal ultrasonography. Nabothian cysts usually don't need any treatment, but if the lesion's nature is unclear and it hurts, surgery may be necessary. In this case study, chronic pelvic pain is described and abnormal uterine bleeding needed surgical intervention because of chronic cystic cervicitis and multiple nabothian cysts accompanied with Leiomyoma accompanied with adenomyosis and endometrial hyperplasia without atypia.
