WOS: 000437950900019 Purpose: This study aimed to present our clinical experience on symptomatic intaabdominal extragenital endometriosis cases. Materials and Methods: In this study, patients undergoing surgery various indications and for which final histopathologic results reported as endometriosis were evaluated. Demographic characteristics, clinical presentations, localization of disease, surgical procedures and recurrence rates within follow-up period were presented. Results: Histopathologically confirmed 778 endometriosis patients were retrospectively analyzed. Extragenital abdominal endometriosis were present in 32 (4.1%) patients and all cases were symptomatic. The most common symptoms at index admission were mass detected within abdominal wall (n: 13; 40.6%) and chronic recurrence abdominal/pelvic pain (n: 9, 28.1%). 22% (n=7) of patients with abdominal extragenital endometriosis were diagnosed preoperatively. The operations performed were as follows: mass excision from the abdominal wall (n=14, 43.8%), appendectomy (n=5, 15.7%), pelvic mass excision(n=6, 18.8%), anterior resection (n=3, 9.4%), right hemicolectomy (n=2, 6,3%), and laparotomy with urinary stenting (n=2, 6,3%). Recurrence is reported in 6 (18.7%) cases at median follow-up of 42 months. Conclusion: Due to extragenital involvement, endometriosis should be part of differential diagnosis in all women who are reserved for abdominal surgery during reproductive era. Along with the complete excision, wound protector use can potentially decrease recurrence rates in cases diagnosed pre- or intraoperatively as endometriosis.

The most common benign neoplasm seen in the liver is haemangioma. It is usually asymptomatic and rarely causes complications. Liver and synchronous organ involvement can be seen. It is usually followed by medical. If symptomatic, rapid growth and diagnosis is uncertain, surgical treatment should be performed. In this article, a case who presented with synchronous haemangima on liver and diaphragma has been reported., Karaciğerde görülen en sık benign neoplazm hemanjiyomdur. Genellikle asemptomatik olup ender olarak komplikasyon oluşturabilir. Karaciğer ve senkron organ tutulumu görülebilir. Genellikle medikal takip edilir. Semptomatik, hızlı büyüme gösterir ve tanı kesin değilse cerrahi tedavi uygulanmalıdır. Bu yazıda karaciğer ve diaframda aynı dönemde görülen senkron hemanjiyomu olan bir olgu sunulmuştur.
