Endometriosis is a relatively common disorder in women of reproductive age; however, appendiceal endometriosis is rare. Thus, a definitive diagnosis is likely to be established only by histology of the appendix. We report a case of endometriosis of the appendix in a 42-year-old woman who presented with symptoms of acute appendicitis. We treated the patient by performing laparoscopic appendectomy, which resulted in a good outcome.
子宫内膜异位症在育龄女性中较为常见；然而，阑尾子宫内膜异位症却很罕见。因此，很可能只有通过阑尾组织学检查才能确诊。我们报告一例42岁女性阑尾子宫内膜异位症病例，该患者表现为急性阑尾炎症状。我们通过腹腔镜阑尾切除术对患者进行治疗，效果良好。
