Abstract
We describe a patient who presented with a symptomatic abdominal wall endometrioma. Therapy for such cases currently relies heavily on a surgical approach through laparoscopic means. This case demonstrates how the use of vascular embolization can provide long-lasting symptomatic relief. Patients who may be better candidates for this procedure compared to laparoscopy may benefit from embolization as a first-line therapy for abdominal wall endometrioma.
