Abstract

Endometriosis is described as the presence of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. Scar endometriosis (SE) is a rare condition which usually develops after gynecologic operations involving the uterus and fallopian tubes. The symptoms are usually nonspecific and cyclic incisional pain increasing by menstruation is the most common symptom. Diagnosis of the disease can be difficult and may be confusing with various other post-surgical conditions. Histopathological examination reveals the final diagnosis. This article presents a case with cesarian SE of which the largest reaches 5x4x3 cm with multiple foci. Scar endometriosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of abdominal wall masses in the patients with a history of abdominal surgery and cyclic painful solid mass.

Özet

Endometriozis, uterus kavitesinin dışında fonksiyonel endometriyal dokunun varlığı olarak tanımlanır. Skar endometriozisi (SE), genellikle rahim ve fallop tüplerini içeren pelvik operasyonlardan sonra gelişen nadir bir durumdur. Semptomlar spesifik değildir. Genellikle başvuru şikayeti menstruasyon sırasında insizyon bölgesine lokalize ağrıdır. Teşhisi bazen zor olabilir ve diğer çeşitli cerrahi sonrası komplikasyonlar ile karışabilir. Tanı genellikle histopatolojik inceleme ile konulur. Bu yazıda sezaryen sonrası insizyonel bölgede gelişen, en büyüğü 5x4x3 cm boyutlara ulaşan çoklu sayıda odak içeren endometriozis olgusu sunulmuştur. Abdominal operasyon öyküsü ve siklik ağrılı solid kitlesi olan hastalarda karın duvarı kitlelerinin ayırıcı tanısında skar endometriozisdüşünülebilir.
