A Typical Presentation of Cesarean Section Scar Endometriosis: A Case Report

Abstract

Endometriosis is the presence of ectopic functioning endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. Scar endometriosis is a rare condition that typically follows obstetrical and gynecological surgeries. Although the symptoms are non-specific and varying, scar endometriosis classically presents with cyclic pain at the site of incision during menstruation. The diagnosis of scar endometriosis remains challenging and requires a comprehensive approach, including clinical presentation and histological and radiological findings. Here, we present a case of extragonadal endometriosis at the cesarean section scar. The patient presented with cyclical menstrual pain at the surgical incision. Our aim in this case report is to present the approach to diagnosing such a condition with the associated presentation and histological findings.
