Abstract

Defined as the ectopic development of uterine tissue outside the uterine cavity, endometriosis is an increasingly common condition that can lead to various complications from chronic pain syndrome, infertility, obstruction due extrinsic compression to malignancy of endometriosis foci. Extrapelvic positioning of endometriosis is rare, diagnosis can be difficult both clinically and imaging, and treatment does not always ensure the absence of recurrences.
