Abstract

Abdominal wall endometriosis with subsequent transformation to clear cell carcinoma is quite rare. The pathogenesis and pattern of this transformation is not well known; hence evaluation and management guidelines are not well established. We highlight a case of clear cell adenocarcinoma arising from the anterior abdominal wall in a previous cesarean section scar treated with excision and the unique addition of Trastuzumab for adjuvant chemotherapy.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.<br /> (© 2022 The Authors.)
