Abstract

Endometriosis is a common clinical problem of the child-bearing women. Incisional endometrioma is very rare. Patients frequently presented with a history of previous gynecological surgery such as cesarean section or hysterectomy. Although being a gynecological disorder, it may seem like an incisional hernia or abdominal wall tumor. Therefore, it is frequently referred to general surgery outpatient clinics. Here, we report two cases with previous histories of cesarean sections and questinable clinical and laboratory findings of malignancy. The masses located on the previous incision scars were excised widely, and pathological examination of surgical specimens revealed the diagnosis of endometrioma in both cases.

Özet

Incisional Endometriozis doğurganlık çağındaki kadınlarda sık görülen klinik bir problemdir. İnsizyon yerleşimli endometriomaya ise nadir rastlanır. Hastalarda genellikle sezaryen veya histerektomi gibi ameliyat öyküsü vardır. Endometriomayı oluşturan dokudan malignite gelişebildiği bildirilmiştir. Jinekolojik bir patoloji olmasına rağmen insizyonel herni ya da karın duvarı tümörleri gibi bulgu verebilmekte ve bu nedenle hastalar genellikle genel cerrahi polikliniklerine başvurmaktadırlar. Biz bu çalışmada doğurganlık çağında olan ve daha önce sezaryen ameliyatı öyküsü bulunan, klinik ve laboratuar olarak malignite şüphesi taşıyan iki olguyu sunduk. Tedavide sezaryen skarındaki kitlelere geniş eksizyon yapıldı ve oluşan fasya defekti primer onarıldı. Patolojik inceleme sonucu kitlelerin endometrium dokusuna sahip endometrioma olduğu saptandı.Endometrioma Mimicking a Malignant Mass: Report of Two Cases
