Introducion:
endosalpingiosis is a benign disease characterized by the ectopic growth of the epithelium in the Fallopian tube, being it exceptional in surgical scars, four cases having been reported by international literature.
Clinical case:
the study presents the clinical case of a 40 year old female patient who consulted for pain in the Pfannenstiel incision and a tumour on the site. After resection, pathological study revealed endosalpingiosis.
Discussion:
the diagnosis of cutaneous endosalpingiosis occurs after surgery and upon the analysis of the resected piece. Complete removal results in the final solution of symptoms and no relapse has been reported in cases published in literature.
