title: [Endometriosis of the abdominal wall after cesarean section].
abstract: The finding of endometriosis of the abdominal wall is a rare event; we describe three cases observed after cesarean section. The first case is an endometriosis of the rectus abdominis, first occurrence in literature. The second case describes a localization limited to the subcutaneous tissue. The third case describes the involvement of the entire abdominal wall. Only two patients complained about excruciating abdominal pain during menstrual bleeding. In one case pain was only an occasional event.
