This condition is often confused with a stitch granuloma or a non-healing scar, posing a diagnostic dilemma that can be resolved through histological examination alone. The incidence of post-tubectomy scar endometriosis is rare, and precise data are limited due to under-reporting and misdiagnosis, with hardly four cases reported in the literature to date. Herein, we present a case of scar endometriosis in a patient who had not undergone any prior surgery other than tubectomy.\n- Reproductive medicine\n- Uterus\nStatistics from Altmetric.com\nFootnotes\nContributors The following authors were responsible for drafting of the text, sourcing and editing of clinical images, investigation results, drawing original diagrams and algorithms, and critical revision for important intellectual content: SS, PK, TK, SB (all the authors).
