Introduction: The presence of functional endometrial tissue in the surgical scar, which commonly follows caesarean section is called scar endometriosis. It is a very rare condition which is commonly misdiagnosed. Case report: We report two cases of scar endometriosis which developed after caesarean section. One case was misdiagnosed as a keloid for a long duration (12 years) and other one was not diagnosed despite the characteristic presenting symptoms. Both the cases underwent surgical excision with free resection margins and histopathological confirmation of diagnosis. Conclusions: Clinicians must be aware of varying presentations of scar endometriosis to ensure timely diagnosis and treatment.

Surgical Conditions

 Endometriosis is defined as presence of functioning endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. Endometriosis can sometimes occur in a previous surgical scar. Scar endometriosis is rare and difficult to diagnose. It mostly follows obstetrical and gynecological surgeries. This condition is often confused with other surgical conditions. We are reporting one case of scar endometriosis involving rectus sheath following cesarean section. The patient required wide surgical excision of the lesion. The pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of this rare condition are being discussed. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/njog.v9i2.11764

Surgical Conditions

Endometriosis is presence of functioning endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. Endometriosis can sometimes occur in a previous surgical scar. Scar endometriosis is rare and difficult to diagnose. It mostly follows obstetrical and gynecological surgeries. This condition is often confused with other surgical conditions. We are reporting 5 cases of scar endometriosis following cesarean section, some of which were misdiagnosed as stitch granuloma initially. Medical treatment was not helpful. All 5 patients required wide surgical excision of the lesion. The pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of this condition are being discussed.

Endometriosis is a common benign gynecologic disorder defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside of the normal location. The overall prevalence is 8–15% in women of reproductive age group. Scar endometriosis is a rare disease, and is difficult to diagnose. It is commonly seen following obstetrical and gynecological surgeries. The symptoms are non-specific, typically involving abdominal wall pain at the incision site at the time of menstruation and palpable tender mass in the incision site. The diagnosis is frequently made only after excision of the diseased tissue and its histological analysis. We present here a case of abdominal wall scar endometriosis in a woman who had undergone a caesarean section four years ago. Surgical excision led to the diagnosis of scar endometriosis. The pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of this rare condition are discussed.Keywords: Abdominal wall; caesarean section; painful scar; scar endometriosis.

Congenital lobar emphysema is a rare condition in dogs. A three-month-old pug presented with acute dyspnoea and radiographic findings diagnosed congenital lobar emphysema. Due to the patient’s rapidly deteriorating ventilation, an emergency right middle lung lobectomy was performed and recovery was uneventful. This case report describes the importance of making a prompt and accurate diagnosis of this condition, based on radiographic findings, to facilitate immediate treatment.

Mucoceles arising from the Blandin Nuhn glands are uncommon benign lesions of the oral cavity, which by their clinical presentation may be confused with more serious diseases such as vascular lesions, pyogenic granulomas, polyps, or squamous papillomas; thereby, it is convenient to be aware of the characteristics of this entity to guide the accurate and timely diagnosis and treatment. Herein, we present a case of a 10-year-old patient with a recurrent lesion of this type, which required surgical excision and marsupialization of the same, with no evidence of recurrence during follow-up.

A 32 years multiparous lady with history of previous three caesarean sections,presented with pain in the scar for the last three years. Clinical examination revealed a firm andtender nodule under the scar which used to become prominent on menstruation. Ultrasoundshowed hypoechoic areas with echogenic shadowing. MRI was unremarkable. Clinical diagnosisof scar endometriosis was made. Local incision done with enblock dissection. Histopathologyconfirmed the presence of endometrial glands. This is a case report of cesarean section scarendometriosis. The pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of this presentation are discussed.
