This integrated literature review compiled 2019–2024 evidence (Portuguese and English) on abdominal wall endometriosis, covering etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment. The review reports that a focal mass of endometrial tissue in the abdominal wall is central to the condition and can produce abdominal pain linked to menstruation, while noting that disease genesis remains not fully elucidated; clinical evaluation combined with imaging and/or blood markers may raise suspicion, but histology is required to confirm diagnosis. For treatment, it describes surgical excision as definitive, with hormonal therapy as an additional option. The paper emphasizes that abdominal wall endometriosis is rare and that clinical studies are scarce. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically abdominal wall endometriosis and its etiology, diagnosis, and treatment.

Abstract

Introdução: A endometriose é uma doença ginecológica crônica, benigna, estrogênio-dependente e de natureza multifatorial que acomete principalmente mulheres em fase reprodutiva, mas também há casos descritos em pacientes na pré-monarca e pós-menopausa. Objetivo: Este estudo busca compilar as informações mais recentes da literatura relacionadas a etiologia, a fisiopatologia, o diagnóstico e o tratamento da endometriose da parede abdominal. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão narrativa da literatura, utilizando a base de dados BVS, PubMed, SciELO e Google Acadêmico, sendo incluídos artigos publicados no período de 2019 a 2024, nos idiomas português e inglês. Resultados: A massa focal de tecido endometrial presente na parede abdominal é o elemento central da doença, causando nas pacientes dores abdominais associada a menstruação. Ademais, segue sendo uma doença de gênese não elucidada. A associação da avaliação clínica e uso de imagens e/ou marcadores sanguíneos ajuda na suspeita do diagnóstico, mas apenas com a análise histológica da lesão é que é confirmado o diagnóstico de EPA. Para o tratamento da doença, a excisão cirúrgica é uma opção definitiva e a terapia hormonal. Conclusão: A endometriose da parede abdominal é uma condição rara, que em sua etiopatogenia ainda não tem a gênese bem definida. Mesmo existindo pouco estudos clínicos, a cirurgia é descrita como a opção terapêutica única, segura e eficiente.

Introduction

Endometriosis is a chronic, benign, estrogen-dependent and multifactorial gynecological disease that mainly affects women in the reproductive phase, but there are also cases described in pre-monarch and post-menopausal patients. Objective: This study seeks to compile the most recent information from the literature related to the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of endometriosis of the abdominal wall. Methodology: This is an integrated literature review, using the databases BVS, PubMed, SciELO, and Google Scholar, including articles published from 2019 to 2024, in Portuguese and English languages. Results: The focal mass of endometrial tissue present in the abdominal wall is the central element of the disease, causing abdominal pain associated with menstruation in patients. Furthermore, it remains a disease whose genesis has not been elucidated. The association of clinical evaluation and the use of images and/or blood markers helps to suspect the diagnosis, but only with histological analysis of the lesion can the diagnosis of APE be confirmed. To treat the disease, surgical excision is a definitive option, as is hormonal therapy. Conclusion: Endometriosis of the abdominal wall is a rare condition, the etiopathogenesis of which is still not well defined. Despite the scarcity of clinical studies, surgery is described as the sole, safe, and efficient therapeutic option.
