In recent times, with the increasing trend in Caesarean sections, the incidence of surgical scar endometriosis has also emerged. But early diagnosis usually leads to a good prognosis.\nMethods: The article is a case series; therefore, no specific methods have been applied.\nResults: Here we present six cases of endometriosis in the cesarean section scar that we have encountered in Gazi Medical College Hospital, Khulna, in the last 4 years (Jan 2020-Dec 2023).\nConclusion: Abdominal wall endometriosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of masses located at cesarean section incision scars, which should be excised for definitive diagnosis and treatment.\nMediscope 2026;13(1): 65-68\n120\nDownloads\nPublished\nHow to Cite\nIssue\nSection\nLicense\nCopyright (c) 2026 Amina Jannat Peea, Syeda Noorjahan Karim, Sumaiya Binte Wahid, Md.
