Abstract

Endometriosis is the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside their normal intrauterine location. Exrauterine implants have been noted in abdomen, axial and peripheral skeleton, lungs and pelvic diaphragm, peritoneum. Endometriosis may spread to sites of surgical abdominal incisions such as previous caesarean sections, laparoscopy, and hernia repair. These abdominal endometriosis accounts for 0.5%-1% of all pelvic endometriosis. We present a case of 26 year old lady presenting with nodule in the previous caesarean scar region.
