L'endometriosi della parete addominale (esperienza personale) [The endometriosis of the abdominal wall (personal experience)]

Endometriosis is a very common gynaecological disease, although the abdominal wall localization is a rare clinical problem in the everyday practise and this explains the incomplete reports in literature and the difficulty of a standard treatment. Authors report four abdominal wall endometriosis cases, underlining how the surgical therapy represents the gold and decisive treatment, thanks also to pro-sthetic reconstruction techniques who allow more radical demolitions. On the contrary, the medical treatment should be reserved to selected cases such as especially the less symptomatic umbilical primitive diseases.
