Abstract:
The case concerns a forty-year-old patient with adenomyosis, metrorrhagia, and typical sciatic pain during menstruation. After the insertion of an LNG-IUD, the bleeding stopped, but the sciatic pain persisted. MRI revealed an endometriotic nodule in the region of the sciatic nerve. The patient underwent successful laparoscopic surgery according to all principles of retroperitoneal pelvic surgery at the Reference Center for Endometriosis and made a full recovery.
