This case report describes a 38-year-old woman with scar endometriosis arising after a lower segment caesarean section (LSCS), emphasizing that scar endometriosis is uncommon and typically iatrogenic. The authors note that diagnosis is often delayed because the lesion can mimic other surgical and dermatological conditions. A key point highlighted is the delayed recognition and the post-surgical nature of the condition in this patient. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it reports a scar endometrioma occurring after LSCS and discusses diagnostic delay due to similarity with other conditions.
