Juvenile cystic Adenomyoma( JCA) is a rare form of adenomyosis, affecting young girls. We are presenting three cases of JCA misdiagnosed preoperatively, as unicornuate uterus with haematometra in non communicating rudimentary horn in two cases and fibroid with cystic degeneration in one case. MRI pelvis is the investigation of choice. Complete excision of the lesion done in all the three cases with recurrence in one case.
