Pedunculated submucous myomas are usually single ;they may be attached to any part of the wall of the cavity ;if they arise in the fundus the stalk is often long and thin. 20 MYOMA CHAP. The growth itself is usually pear-shaped with the obtuseend downwards. It is completely invested by epitheliumderived from the mucosa. Submucous myomas, v\^hether sessile or pedunculated,. Fig. 23.—Multiple submucous myomas, faceted by mutual pressure.(From Eden and Lockyers Gynaecology for Students and Practitioners, 1916.) may contain tubular gland-spaces, which are no doubtderivatives of the gland-tubules of the endometrium. Theusual term erroneously appHed to them is fibroadenoma(see Fig. 24, Plate IV., opposite page i^). Submucous growths are liable to the same second-ary changes as the other varieties.
