Abstract

Endometriosis is defined as functioning endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus. Pelvic endometriosis is more common than extrapelvic sites. Among extrapelvic sites, scar endometriosis is a very rare entity and is difficult to diagnose. It can affect the scars like caesarean section, laparotomy, perineal scars in episiotomy. The diagnosis mainly requires a high index of suspicion and the treatment of choice wide excision. Here, we present a case of caesarean section scar endometriosis in a 33-year old patient.
