In 8 cases the disease returned and reoperation was necessary. In one case we observed adenocarcinoma papillare.ConclusionsEndometriosis in postoperative abdominal wall scar after cesarean section is rarely observed. Because to the fact that the number of cesarean sections is constantly increasing, this complication becomes more frequent. The treatment of choice is surgical resection.
