Abstract
Endometriosis is a chronic disease characterized with the spread of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. The article describes a rare clinical case of endometriosis in the uterus round ligament in a 36-y.o. patient. The patient was operated on with the excision of endometrioid infiltrate within healthy tissues and simultaneous plastic surgery of the inguinal canal with a mesh implant.References
