This 1935 case report by Carl V Weller describes a rare instance of endometriosis manifesting specifically in the umbilicus. The author details the clinical presentation and pathological findings associated with this unusual extra-pelvic location of the disease. The paper serves as an early documentation of umbilical endometriosis, highlighting its potential for misdiagnosis if clinicians are not aware of such atypical presentations. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically describing a rare case of umbilical involvement.
