Introduction: Endometriosis is a common gynecologic disease which diagnosis and treatment is an obstacle among gynecologists. This disease depends on estrogen and is seen during the fertility period. On some occasions, endometriosis in the ovary presents as cysts called endometrioma that causes excruciating pain and requires excisional surgery. A dermoid cyst is the most common benign tumor of the ovary and is bilateral in 10% of cases. Sometimes, the patient is a candidate for surgery due to torsion or when the cysts are too large. The simultaneous appearance of these diseases is rare in an ovary and has reported as limited. This study aims to evaluate the simultaneous appearance of dermoid cyst and endometrioma in an ovary as a case study.
Case Presentation: The case was a 30-year-old virgin woman who underwent laparoscopic surgery at Sarem Hospital, due to abdominal and pelvic pain for several months as diagnosed with bilateral ovarian endometriosis (based on ultrasound and MRI). In addition to endometrioma during surgery, there was a dermoid cyst in an ovary that removed. In imaging of the patient (sonography and MRI) was not pointed to the dermoid cyst.
Conclusion: During each surgery, the possibility of another pathology must be considered simultaneously with the pathology that caused the surgery, and each disease must be treated in the best way that is appropriate.
