This case report describes a 34-year-old woman presenting with cyclic pain and a mass in her abdominal wall, diagnosed as scar endometrioma following two prior cesarean sections. The authors highlight that while the incidence of this condition is low, ranging from 0.03% to 1% in women with previous cesarean deliveries, diagnostic delays are common due to symptom overlap with other pathologies. The paper emphasizes the importance of recognizing this rare manifestation of extra-pelvic disease to ensure timely surgical intervention and proper management. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically the abdominal wall variant known as scar endometrioma.

Abstract

Abdominal wall endometriosis, also referred to as scar endometrioma, is a infrequent condition, in most cases developing following previous cesarean section or pelvic surgery. The incidence of scar endometrioma is approximated at 0.03%-1% of all women with previous cesarean delivery. The predominant clinical picture is cyclic pain. Because of a variety of similar conditions and a relative rarity, a considerable delay is frequently noted from the onset of symptoms to proper treatment. We present a case of a 34-year-old patient with scar endometrioma after two previous cesarean deliveries.
