FNAC Diagnosis of Scar Endometriosis: A Case Report with Review of Literature
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 11
Abstract
Endometriosis is the presence of functioning endometrium outside the uterus.[1]Extra pelvic endometriosis is less common and more difficult to diagnose due to extreme variability in presentation.[2]The diagnosis can be suspected clinically when there is systemic endometriosis or cyclical pain. Otherwise it is difficult to differentiate it from other abdominal tumors and non-neoplastic conditions.[1]We report a case of 32 year old woman who presented with a tender anterior abdominal wall nodule at previous caesarean section scar. Initial clinical diagnosis was of a suture granuloma. Medical treatment was not helpful. On fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) a diagnosis of scar endometriosis was given which was confirmed on histopathology
