Abstract

We report a case of abdominal wall endometriosis which usually occurs in the surgical scar of previous cesarean sections. This condition often presents as a mass with cyclical pain and swelling. The definitive diagnosis was established by histopathological examination. The patient was premenopausal with no history of pelvic endometriosis. The management was adequate excision to prevent recurrence.
