We report a 37-year-old Chinese woman who presented with a groin lump associated with constant and non-catamenial pain. Ultrasonography was suggestive of an inguinal hernia. Intraoperatively, an endometriotic lump with no laparoscopical evidence of endometriosis in the abdominopelvic region was found. Isolated endometriotic lesions in the inguinal canal is a rare occurrence. Surgeons, however, should consider this diagnosis in women of reproductive age who present with a painful groin lump.
我们报告一名37岁的中国女性，她出现了一个腹股沟肿块，并伴有持续性、非经期疼痛。超声检查提示为腹股沟疝。术中发现一个子宫内膜异位肿块，而在腹腔盆腔区域未发现腹腔镜检查证实的子宫内膜异位症证据。孤立性腹股沟管子宫内膜异位病变较为罕见。然而，对于出现腹股沟疼痛性肿块的育龄女性，外科医生应考虑这一诊断。
