Introduction: Endosalpingiosis is a disorder of the mullerian system characterized by benign glands lined with tubal type epithelium and involves the peritoneum, subperitoneal tissues and retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Myometrial endosalpingiosis is very rare.
Case report: A 48-year-old female presented to Sarem hospital complaining of abdominal pain for six months. Gynecological and radiologic examination revealed a pelvic mass, suggestive of a leiomyoma with secondary cystic changes. The gross examination showed a subserosal large cyst meatured 11×7×9 cm. The cyst microscopically consisted of multiple macro cysts lined with benign tubal epithelium. As a result of these findings, the diagnosis was cystic endosalpingiosis.
Conclusion: In this report, the clinicopathologic features of a cystic endosalpingiosis case located in the myometrium is presented with a review of literature. Rarely, endosalpingiosis is presented with such large cystic changes and significant macroscopic findings. Awareness of the existence of this rare lesion prevents misdiagnosis.
