Abstract

BACKGROUND: Adenosarcoma in a patient with extraovarian endometriosis is a rare event and can be easily overlooked. CASE: A woman with a history of endometriosis underwent multiple resections of a vaginal mass and medical treatment for presumed recurrent endometriosis. Eventually, a vaginal adenosarcoma was diagnosed. CONCLUSION: The possibility of adenosarcoma should be considered if an enlarging mass occurs at the site of extraovarian endometriosis.
