This paper defines endometriosis as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity, noting that while the pelvis is the most common site, extrapelvic locations are rarer and harder to diagnose due to varied presentations. The authors describe a specific case of cutaneous endometriosis occurring within an abdominal wall scar to illustrate these diagnostic challenges in atypical sites. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically focusing on a rare case of cutaneous endometriosis in an abdominal scar.

Abstract

A endometriose é definida como a presença de glândulas endometriais e estroma fora da cavidade uterina. Essa doença, comum nas mulheres, é geralmente observada durante os anos reprodutivos. Embora a pelve seja o sítio mais comum da endometriose em mulheres, a localização extrapélvica é menos frequente e ainda mais difícil de diagnosticar, em decorrência das apresentações distintas. Neste artigo é descrito um caso de endometriose de cicatriz da parede abdominal.Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity. This disease is commonly observed in women, particularly those of reproductive age. The pelvis is the most common location for endometriosis. On the other hand, extrapelvic endometriosis, which is less common, is more difficult to diagnose because of the extreme differences in its presentation. In this article, we describe our experience of a case of endometriosis in an abdominal wall scar.
