Caesarean scar endometriosis- A case report and review of literature
Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
Endometriosis is described as the presence of functioning endometrial tissue outside the confines of the uterine cavity. Scar endometriosis is a rare disease, and is difficult to diagnose. The symptoms are nonspecific, typically involving abdominal wall pain at the incision site at the time of menstruation. It commonly follows obstetrical and gynaecological surgeries. The diagnosis is frequently made only after excision of the diseased tissue. We present here a case of abdominal wall scar endometriosis in a woman who had undergone a caesarean section eleven months ago. Surgical excision led to the diagnosis of scar endometriosis.
