Endometriosis is defined as the presence of functioning endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. Endometriosis can sometimes occur in a previous surgical scar. Scar endometriosis is rare and difficult to diagnose. It mostly follows obstetrical and gynecological surgeries. This condition is often confused with other surgical conditions. We are reporting one case of scar endometriosis involving rectus sheath following cesarean section. The patient required wide surgical excision of the lesion. The pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of this rare condition are being discussed.
子宫内膜异位症的定义为子宫腔外存在具有功能的子宫内膜组织。子宫内膜异位症有时可发生于既往手术瘢痕处。瘢痕子宫内膜异位症罕见且难以诊断。它大多继发于妇产科手术。这种情况常与其他外科病症相混淆。我们报告一例剖宫产术后累及腹直肌鞘的瘢痕子宫内膜异位症病例。该患者需要对病变进行广泛手术切除。本文对这种罕见病症的发病机制、诊断及治疗进行了讨论。
