Abstract

Malignant transformation in a focus of endometriosis is uncommon (less than 1%). The ovary is by far the most common site, followed in frequency by the rectovaginal septum. A case of clear cell adenocarcinoma arising in endometriosis of the rectovaginal septum is presented and its pathogenesis discussed.
