Abstract

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial tissue (glands and stroma) outside the uterine cavity. Various organs can be affected, including the skin. Umbilical endometriosis is the most common clinical form of extrapelvic endometriosis and the most frequent type of cutaneous endometriosis, classified into primary and secondary forms. The primary or spontaneous form is rare, occurring without any prior surgical intervention, with a predilection for the umbilical area.
