Endometriosis is a very common benign gynecological condition. It is the presence of functional endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. Though it can involve most parts of the body, scar endometriosis is an infrequent condition. The wide array of clinical presentations makes it difficult to diagnose preoperatively. Here, we report two cases of caesarian section endometriosis. One presented as a painful swelling and the other as an area of induration in the scar. Only one of the patients had been on medical treatment with D anazol. D espite that both patients rem ained sym ptom free after excision o f their lesions.
