Abstract

Objective: Endometriosis is seen in women during their reproductive period, where stromal tissue and functional endometrial glands of the uterusare observed outside the uterine cavity. In this study, we aimed to identify the clinical characteristics of our patients who underwent surgery with scarendometriosis and to discuss the surgical results in light of the literature.Materials and Methods: A total of 24 patients who underwent surgery and diagnosed as having endometriosis as the result of a pathologic examinationwere retrospectively evaluated.Results: The mean age of the patients was 31 years. Thirteen presented to general surgery and 11 presented to gynecology outpatient clinics. The pain wascyclical in 19 patients. There was history of cesarean section in 9 patients, twice in 12, and 3 times in three patients. The mean diameter was 39.1 mm onultrasound, and 37.5 mm on magnetic resonance imaging. Endometriosis was on the left side of the incisions in 13, whereas it was on the right in 11. Themean weight of the lesions was 61.6 grams.Conclusion: The occurrence of endometriosis is supported by the iatrogenic implantation theory. In the event of a mass in the abdominal wall, previousobstetric and gynecologic operations and a history of a painful mass during menstruation periods must be questioned. In the treatment of scar endometriosis,excision is required by obtaining secure margins. If diagnosis can be established preoperatively, unnecessary surgeries can prevented.

Özet

Amaç: Endometriozis reprodüktif dönemdeki kadınlarda fonksiyonel endometriyal gland ve stromal dokunun uterus kavitesi dışında görülmesidir. Bu çalışmada skar endometriozis nedeniyle opere edilen hastalarımızın klinik özelliklerini tanımlamayı ve cerrahi sonuçlarını literatür ışığında tartışmayı amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Patolojik inceleme sonucu endometriozis tanısı alan ve opere edilen 24 hasta retrospektif olarak incelenmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan hastaların yaş ortalaması 31 olup 13’ü genel cerrahi polikliniğine 11’i ise jinekoloji polikliniğine başvurmuştur. On dokuz hastada siklik ağrı vardı. Dokuz hastada 1 kez, 12 hastada 2 kez ve 3 hastada 3 kez sezaryen öyküsü vardı. Ultrasonografide lezyonların çapının ortalaması 39,1 mm, manyetik rezonans görüntülemede 37,5 mm idi. On üç hastada insizyonun sol tarafında, 11 hastada sağ tarafında endometriozis saptandı. Lezyonların ortalama ağırlığı 61,6 gramdı. Sonuç: Endometriozisin oluşumu iatrojenik implantasyon teorisi ile desteklenmektedir. Batın duvarında kitle şikayeti ile gelen olgularda öncesinde obstetrik ve jinekolojik operasyon, menstruasyon dönemlerinde artan ağrılı kitle öyküsü iyice sorgulanmalıdır. Skar endometriozisinin tedavisinde güvenli marj sınırı elde edilerek eksizyon gerekmektedir. Skar endometrioziste teşhis önceden konulabilirse gereğinden daha az veya fazla ameliyat yapılması engellenmiş olacaktır.
