This paper reports endometriosis occurring in a scarless abdominal wall in association with an underlying umbilical hernia, described in an article-level clinical case format. The primary finding is the presence of endometriotic disease in an abdominal wall location without prior surgical scarring, alongside an umbilical hernia. The main limitation is that the provided text does not include methods or results beyond the report context, and it is not possible to assess study design, sample size, or broader inference from the excerpt. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on abdominal wall endometriosis in the absence of a prior scar, with an underlying umbilical hernia.
