Umbilical Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a benign disorder and characterized by ectopic endometrium like tissues outside the uterus. We report a case of a 31 year-old woman referred to our clinic due to complaints of a vulvar and umbilical mass and periodic swelling with pain of the mass at the time of menstruation. The cyst was removed totally. Histopathological examination showed findings compatible with endometriosis in both. We have treated them with suppressive treatment with Depot Medroxy Progesterone Acetate (DMPA) and after six months patient was completely asymptomatic.

Umbilical Endometriosis

AbstractEndometriosis affects 7 to 10% of women of reproductive age. Primary umbilical endometriosis (PUE) is even rarer with unclear pathogenesis. We report a case of PUE possibly the youngest patient reported in the literature.A 16-year-old girl of African origin presented with painful umbilical lump for 2 to 3 months duration with background history of precocious puberty, cyclical vomiting, and menorrhagia. Clinical examination showed dark-colored, tender, irreducible umbilical lump. A provisional diagnosis of incarcerated umbilical hernia was made. Abdominal X-ray showed no features of intestinal obstruction. Ultrasound scan of the abdomen showed lump containing heterogeneous echogenic material measuring 2.0 × 1.5cm within the umbilicus with no visible bowel loops or peristalsis. This was reported as consistent with an umbilical hernia with narrow neck possibly containing mesentery or intra-abdominal fat. The patient underwent urgent exploration of umbilicus under general anesthetic. At operation, a dark-colored, firm mass was excised and sent for histology. The underlying fascia and peritoneum were repaired.Histological examination confirmed the excised tissue was endometriosis. Follow-up continues in the endometriosis clinic.Umbilical endometriosis should be considered in differential diagnoses of painful umbilical lesion in adolescent girls and women of reproductive age. Complete excision and histology are highly recommended for obtaining a definitive diagnosis, to exclude malignancy and to prevent recurrence.

Umbilical Endometriosis

Endometriosis is the commonest gynaecological problem; it affects 7 to 10% women in reproductive age group. Commonest site being the pelvic organs, extrapelvic presentation in almost all parts of the body have been reported. However umbilical endometriosis has been reported in more than one hundred cases. It was first described by Villar in 1886. Umbilical endometriosis accounts for only 0.5% to 1% of all endometriosis cases. Most of the reported cases occurred in the scar following gynaecological and obstetrical surgery. A few cases of primary umbilical endometriosis have been reported. We report such a rare case of primary umbilical endometriosis and the diagnosis was done by FNAC & the patient underwent wide local excision.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cmoshmcj.v13i1.19426

Sister Mary Joseph’S Nodule

Umbilical metastases, also termed Sister Mary Joseph's nodule, are reported rarely in medical literature and they are associated with advanced metastatic intra-abdominal and pelvic cancers. The purpose of this publication is to report a rare case of umbilical metastasis misdiagnosed as acomplicated umbilical hernia. Case presentation. A 74-years-old woman with nausea and painful umbilical swelling was misdiagnosed as incarcerated umbilical hernia оn the initial examination. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a huge pelvic cystic-solid mass, probably originates from right ovary. Conclusion. In conclusion, the presented case demonstrated that due to the lack of understanding Sister Mary Joseph’s nodule could be easily mistaken for incarcerated umbilical hernia.
