Hepatic Endometriosis With Diaphragmatic and Pulmonary Invasion Treated by En Bloc Resection: A Case Report

Listen to this summary

This case report addresses the rare occurrence of hepatic endometriosis with transdiaphragmatic and pulmonary invasion, a condition not previously documented. The authors detail the successful management of a 54-year-old woman through en bloc resection, highlighting the importance of considering hepatic endometriosis in the differential diagnosis of cystic hepatic masses and demonstrating that aggressive surgical intervention can lead to positive outcomes even with extrahepatic extension.
