This case report describes an atypical endometriotic cyst with large biometry and a thick septum that hindered diagnosis, highlighting the need for descriptive reporting when histological identification is impossible.

Abstract

The paper reports an atypical ecographic pattern of endometriosic cysts. The large biometry and the presence of a septum which was more than 1 cm thick prevented the diagnosis of this ovarian pathology. The Authors agree that in similar cases it is important to limit the report to a mere description since it is impossible to identify the histological character of the ovarian mass.
