This case report describes a patient who developed a mesh infection after undergoing abdominal wall defect repair for abdominal wall endometriosis. The authors highlight that while synthetic mesh is commonly used in hernia repairs, its application in the context of excising endometriotic lesions carries specific risks of postoperative infection. The paper details the clinical presentation and management of this complication, emphasizing the need for careful surgical planning and monitoring when combining oncologic or gynecologic resection with reconstructive mesh placement. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically, it addresses the surgical complications associated with the repair of abdominal wall defects caused by deep infiltrating endometriosis.
