The paper reports a 30-year-old woman with a history of three prior cesarean sections who developed pain and a firm, irregular, menstruation-prominent nodule at a healed scar site over two years. Clinical examination and ultrasound identified a painful, hypoechoic area, while MRI was non-conclusive, leading the authors to diagnose scar endometriosis based on history and clinical findings. The abnormal tissue was excised and histopathology confirmed endometriosis by detecting endometrial glands. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it presents a biopsy-confirmed case of endometriosis in a previous cesarean section scar (scar endometriosis).
