Diagnostic assessment: the abdominal USG showed a 42mm round, solid mass, with poor blood flow in the anterior abdominal wall (Figure 1).
(A, B) MRI images of the masses in the anterior abdominal wall (arrows); the lesions tend to extent to the subcutaneous fat and the right rectus abdominis muscle

T1 images, high inhomogeneous signals on T2-weighted images and pathological contrast enhancement using intravenous paramagnetic contrast media. The lesions tend to extent to the subcutaneous fat and the right rectus abdominis muscle (Figure 2 (A, B)).

In the operating room, the mass and the local abdominal wall removed en bloc, because endometrial tissue was developed at the rectus abdominus muscle sheath too (Figure 3 (A, B)).
