Abstract

An extremely rare extrapelvic position of endometriosis with a precise incidence of 0.07%–0.47%, leading usually to delayed and false diagnosis. Differential diagnosis should include that rare condition while ultrasonography remains a pivotal tool to unravel that enigma, especially in women with no specific symptoms and surgeries in the past.
