Abstract EN

We herein report a case of clear cell carcinoma arising from endometriosis in the groin in a 53-year-old woman.

The findings of MRI and FDG/PET-CT indicated a malignant tumor, and surgical biopsy confirmed adenocarcinoma of the female genital tract.

The tumor including a part of the abdominal rectus muscle and rectus sheath, subcutaneous fat, skin, and the right inguinal ligament was resected en bloc.

The defect in the abdominal wall was reconstructed with a fascia lata tensor muscle skin flap.

The tumor was composed of clear cell adenocarcinoma arising from extrapelvic endometriosis.

The patient received chemotherapy with gemcitabine and carboplatin for 6 cycles and had no evidence of recurrence 7 months after the treatment.

We herein described the diagnosis and surgical management of endometriosis-associated carcinoma in the groin.
