Scar endometriosis is an abnormal presence of endometrial tissue at the site of the scar. Most commonly reported with CS scar. Our case represented an endometriosis at the site of the scar of laparotomy for disturbed ectopic pregnancy. Scar endometriosis should be always considered in any patient who has a history of such operations with localised pain, especially if associated with other features like increased pain during menstruation.
I would like to thank Dr. Pratap Kumar Shinde and Dr.El Sadiq Elmukashfi Ahmed, SQH Surgery Department, for their valuable operative notes.
