Hidden Depths: Unveiling Endometriosis in the Canal of Nuck

Endometriosis located within the canal of Nuck represents a highly uncommon occurrence, often posing a diagnostic challenge due to its atypical site and varied clinical presentations. The case of a 31-year-old female who presented with groin swelling and subsequent suprapubic pain for a duration of two years is described in this study. Utilizing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a cystic lesion was detected within the canal of Nuck, raising suspicion of endometriosis. Surgical exploration confirmed the presence of endometrial implants, supporting the initial radiological findings. This particular case emphasizes the significance of imaging techniques in diagnosing endometriosis in unusual sites, thereby enabling timely interventions and enhancing patient outcomes. Furthermore, it underscores the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach involving radiologists, gynecologists, and surgeons in ensuring comprehensive care for such patients. In the subsequent sections, we endeavor to present a unique instance of endometriosis within the canal of Nuck, a condition scarcely documented in the existing global literature. Our objective is to heighten awareness and encourage the consideration of endometriosis as a potential differential diagnosis in females presenting with inguinal masses and pelvic discomfort.
