This article reports two cases of thoracic hematogenic endometriosis diagnosed via histological study in female patients treated at a thoracic surgery department. The first patient presented with an asymptomatic posterior mediastinum tumor, while the second experienced recurrent catamenial pneumothorax. The authors note that the condition lacks pathognomonic symptoms, making definitive diagnosis reliant on histological confirmation rather than clinical presentation alone. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically the rare manifestation of thoracic endometriosis involving both mediastinal tumors and catamenial pneumothorax.

Abstract

Thoracic hematogenic endometriosis is a rare pathology. A clinical course hasn't pathognomic symptoms, because of it, the diagnosis is established due to histological study. The article presented two cases of female patients, who were suffering from thoracic endometriosis. They were hospitalized to the department of thoracic surgery of Municipal multifield hospital No 2 in Saint-Petersburg. The first patient had a posterior mediastinum tumor with asymptomatic disease course. The second patient was with recurrent catamenial pneumothorax.
