Abstract:
This is a case report on an endometriosis in retroperitoneally situated lymphatic nodes in a 29-year-old patient. The patient had a cervical carcinoma FIGO Ib and was treated surgically by radical hysterectomy after Wertheim-Meigs-Okabayashi with pelvic lymphonodectomy. Endometriosis was found in two lymphatic nodes of the retroperitoneum. The patient had no anamnesis or clinical symptoms of endometriosis. Endometriosis could also not be found in any other parts of the abdomen.
