Abstract

Endometriosis, which is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the endometrium, most commonly affects pelvic peritoneal surfaces, ovaries, and uterine ligaments. Even it is quite rare, endometriosis may affect the vulva, vagina, or perineal region, generally secondary to obstetric or surgical trauma. In this paper, we described a virgin patient with perineal endometriosis, who did not have any history of perineal or vulvar surgery, and had recurrence of the lesion despite surgical and medical therapies.
