Extra-genital endometriosis, including parietal, appendiceal, and thoracic sites, accounts for 5% of cases. Management varies from surgical resection for parietal endometriosis to medical treatment and surgery for thoracic endometriosis.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Surgical Pathology

Context:

  • Endometriosis commonly affects pelvic organs but can occur in extra-genital sites.
  • Parietal, appendiceal, pleuropulmonary, and diaphragmatic endometriosis constitute 5% of all endometriosis cases.
  • Understanding the diagnosis and management of these rare localizations is crucial.

Purpose:

  • To review the literature on the diagnosis and management of parietal, appendiceal, pleuropulmonary, and diaphragmatic endometriosis.
  • To outline appropriate treatment strategies for these uncommon endometriosis presentations.

Summary:

  • Parietal endometriosis often necessitates extensive surgical resection.
  • Appendiceal endometriosis, a form of digestive endometriosis, may require appendectomy if deep infiltrating endometriosis causes induration.
