Abstract

Implantation of endometriosis to pelvic and abdominal scar tissue is a very rare occurrence. Most commonly observed after cesarean sections due to implantation of uterine endometrial stem cells to outside tissues. Patients are often asymptomatic but may present with cyclic pain and mass. Imaging diagnosis is possible when classical implantation site near the scar tissue, clinical history and imaging findings are combined. In ultrasound imaging the lesion is often solid, mildly hypoechoic and often isoechoic to surrounding muscle. Presence of bleeding and fluid may cause the lesion to appear more heterogeneous. On computed tomography imaging the most pronounced finding is avid contrast enhancement of the lesion whereas in magnetic resonance imaging sensitivity to blood products.

Özet

Pelvik veya abdominal skar dokusuna endometriozis ekimi oldukça nadir gözlenen bir durumdur. En sık olarak sezaryen operasyonları sonrasında uterus endometrial kavitesi içindeki endometrial stem hücrelerinin dış dokulara ekilmesi sonucunda gelişmektedir. Hastalar genellikle asemptomatiktir ancak siklik ağrı veya ele gelen kitle şikayeti ile başvurabilirler. Skar hattı yakınında klasik yerleşim yeri, klinik hikaye ve görüntüleme bulguları ile birleştirildiğinde tanı koyulması olasıdır. Ultrasonografi ile incelemede lezyon genellikle solid, hafif hipoekoik vasıfta, kas ile izoekoik özelliktedir. Kanama veya sıvı varlığı lezyonu heterojenleştirebilmektedir. Bilgisayarlı tomografik incelemede lezyonda en belirgin özellik, yoğun kontrast tutulumu olmakta iken manyetik rezonans görüntülemede ise kan ürünlerine hassasiyet ön plana çıkmaktadır.
