Abstract
Abstract We report a case of primary umbilical endometriosis a rare clinical entity, with an incidence of 0.5–1% of all the patients of endometriosis. 1 Endometriosis as such is a common gynecological condition and pelvis being the most common site of the disease. Extra pelvic site is less common and even more difficult to diagnose due to the extreme variability in presentation. Extra genital endometriosis is less common but has been described almost in every area of female body including bowel, bladder, lungs, brain, umbilicus and surgical scars. A 35 years old multi para presented to surgical OPD with complains of swelling at Umbilicus for past 3 months. FNAC was advised on OPD basis which to our surprise revealed an adenocarcinoma. Excision Biopsy with Umbliectomy was done which confirmed endometriosis of umbilicus.
