Describes the existence of endometrioma in a spigelian hernia sac. Spigelian Hernia is a rare ventral hernia, presenting difficulties in diagnosis and carrying a high incarceration and obstruction risk. Endometriomas occur due to implantation of endometrial cells into a surgical wound, most often
Bowel endometriosis affects about 3.8-37% of women with endometriosis diagnosis. Most of the time endometriosis involves the recto-sigmoid. Right colon involvement is not common in endometriosis and also a few studies have reported obstructive endometriosis of bowel. Here, a case of Endometriosis is the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity. Although it is common in women in the reproductive age, intestinal endometriosis is extremely rare and may lead to serious clinical problems. In this article, we present two rare cases of endometriosis
BACKGROUND
Endometrial tissue is present outside the uterine cavity in 6-10% of fertile women. Associated symptoms such as dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia and abdominal discomfort are non-specific. For this reason, endometriosis is not always considered in women with abdominal symptoms. Endometriosis can
Our patient had a history of chronic endometriosis and pelvic pain and complained of recent onset of right-sided abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Transvaginal ultrasonography revealed a thick-walled mass superior and medial to the right ovary, which was thought to be an inflamed appendix. The
We report a rare case of small bowel obstruction (SBO) caused by endometriosis in a postmenopausal woman. A 54-year-old postmenopausal woman presented with severe abdominal pain and vomiting. Before menopause, she sometimes had abdominal pain associated with menses. Axial multi-dimensional CT images
Bowel endometriosis affects between 3.8% and 37% of women with endometriosis. The evaluation of symptoms and clinical examination are inadequate for an accurate diagnosis of intestinal endometriosis. We describe the case of a 41-year-old woman who presented to our hospital because of six months of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of microlaparoscopy vs. conventional laparoscopy in the management of patients with early-stage pelvic endometriosis.
METHODS
In this prospective, randomized study we evaluated 54 patients with a clinical diagnosis of stage I and II pelvic
A 30-year-old female presented to the emergency department with severe abdominal pain and vomitings during her premenstrual period. Abdominal imaging revealed a mass originating from the scar of cesarean section extending into the rectus muscle. The cesarean section was performed four years back.
Retrospectively it is established that the beginning of the endometriosis is 3-4 years after menarche. It can be found between 12-20 years of age in girls with congenital abnormality of the uterus and the urinary tract as well as with menarche before 11 years of age. Primary predilection areas are
While endometriosis typically affects the ovaries, deep infiltrating endometriosis can affect the gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, and deep pelvis, awareness of which is important for radiologists. Symptoms are nonspecific and can range from chronic abdominal and deep pelvic pain to nausea,
We present a report on ultrasound findings in extragenital endometriosis and a literature review accompanied by illustrations. Intestinal endometriosis should be considered in female patients of reproductive age who present with constipation, gastrointestinal bleeding, nausea, vomiting, cramp-like
The study was undertaken to identify the presenting features of intestinal endometriosis and to evaluate its investigation and surgical management. Twenty-six cases of intestinal endometriosis were identified during a fourteen year period. The commonest site of occurrence was the rectosigmoid region
BACKGROUND
Endometriosis is usually a disease involving women of reproductive age. Colonic endometriosis is a rare sequelae. It usually presents vaguely with nonspecific abdominal pain, dyspareunia, fecal tenesmus, rectal bleeding or painful defecation. There are very few case reports of sigmoid
We analyzed peri-operative outcomes of 80 patients who underwent robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery and were diagnosed with stage IV endometriosis (revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine) between January 2007 and December 2010 at a tertiary gynecologic oncology referral center with a
