A case of trocar site implantation of endometriosis three years after laparoscopic hysterectomy
Open accessAbstract
We present the case of a 42-year-old woman who had undergone laparoscopic hysterectomy for uterine myoma three years prior to diagnosis with trocar site endometriosis.The patient was observed to suffer endometrial implant exclusively at the suprapubic trocar site.This case demonstrated that trocar site endometriosis can occur, even in a patient without a uterus and without previous endometriosis.The etiopathogenesis of this condition was likely attributed to the dissemination of endometrial tissue during laparoscopic surgery, resulting in subsequent microscopic endometriosis cell implantation in the trocar site.

The literature describes only two patients who underwent hysterectomy complicated by AWE.
“Among these, the literature describes only two patients who underwent a hysterectomy complicated by AWE [7, 8].”

The Case Report (page unavailable) documents one patient who developed abdominal-wall endometriosis at a trocar site after hysterectomy. The Discussion calls the case unusual but does not establish that the literature contains only two such patients; that numerical claim is unsupported by this source. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
