Umbilical endometriosis : a radical excision with laparoscopic assistance / L. Fedele, G. Frontino, S. Bianchi, F. Borruto, N. Ciappina. - In: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SURGERY. - ISSN 1743-9191. - 8:2(2010), pp. 109-111.
Abstract:
Umbilical endometriosis represents the most common site of cutaneous endometriosis. Although its treatment is typically surgical, in literature the approach used is variable and extends from diathermocoagulation to omphalectomy. Such superficial treatments for umbilical endometriosis can predispose the patient to a relapse of the disease. We here present seven cases of umbilical endometriosis treated with radical surgery with a laparoscopically-assisted approach, with a complete and long-term disease-free follow-up.
