Abstract

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. It is known to be detected in scar tissue after ceaserean section, hysterectomy, appendectomy, laparascopy, amniosynthesis and episiotomy. The incidence of endometriosis in scar tissue after ceaserean section is between 0.03-0.4%. In our case, endometriosis in ceaserean scar tissue is detected 5 years after ceaserean section. Patient is treated with wide surgical incision, and pathology revealed endometriosis. Presence of cyclic pain of a mass related with ceaserean section scar tissue is pathognomonic of ceaserean scar endometriosis, and extrusion of the mass with wide excision is the treatment modality. Patients should be given appropriate care for their specific problems, besides giving comprehensive care in family medicine.

Özet

Endometriyozis endometrial dokunun uterin kavitenin dışında bulunması hali olarak tanımlanmıştır. Sezaryen, histerektomi, apendektomi, laparoskopi sonrası trokar yerinde, amniyosentez, epizyotomi sonrasında skar dokusunda endometriosis saptanabildiği bilinmektedir. Sezaryen sonrası skar dokusunda endometriyosis gelişme sıklığı %0.03-%0.4 arasında değişmektedir. Olgumuzda sezaryen operasyonundan 5 yıl sonra sezaryen skar yerinde kitle geliştiği saptandı. Geniş lokal eksizyonla çıkarılan kitlenin patolojisi endometriyozis olarak belirlendi. Sezaryen skarı ile ilişkili bir kitlede dönemsel ağrıların varlığı sezaryen skar endometriyozisi açısından patognomonik olup kitlenin geniş eksizyonla çıkarımı ile tedavi edilmektedir. Aile Hekimliğ i bütüncül yaklaşımı içerisinde hastaların özelliği olan sorunlarının da farkında olunarak hastalara gereken hizmet verilmelidir.
