Abstract
Compared with endometriosis-associated ovarian carcinoma, the prognosis of this abdominal scar complication is poor. In the literature, survival rate reaches only 57% after a short follow-up of 20 months. Clear-cell carcinoma is the most common histological subtype, followed by endometrioid carcinoma. Radical surgery is the main treatment. Good technique and proper care during cesarean section may help in preventing this endometriosis complication.
