We describe the first case with an involvement of both sites in this condition. The radiographs showed ”pulmonary metastases” together with clinical findings of a hydronephrosis, mimicing a malignant metastatic gynecologic tumor of unknown primary. A laparoscopy showed severe endometriotic lesions; therefore the findings were most likely related to the condition of endometriosis. The patient was treated with gosereline acetate for six months (Zoladex®). Control radiographs showed complete regression of the pulmonary lesions and the patient is symptom free at 36 months after diagnosis.\nSimilar content being viewed by others\nAuthor information\nAuthors and Affiliations\nAdditional information\nReceived: 10 January 2001 / Accepted: 28 February 2001\nRights and permissions\nAbout this article\nCite this article\nLudwig, M., Bauer, O., Wiedemann, G. et al.
