We describe a case of a 26-year-old woman, with a history of cesarean delivery, who presented with cyclical pain and a subcutaneous mass in the lower abdomen. Where most AWE lesions may be surgically managed by a single surgeon, imaging revealed an unusually large lesion (13\u2009\u00d7\u20094\u2009\u00d7\u200910\u2009cm) involving the rectus abdominis muscle. Plastic, gynecologic, and general surgeons combined their expertise to conduct AWE excision combined with miniabdominoplasty in a single procedure. After resection, a retrorectus mesh (Rives\u2013Stoppa technique) reinforced the primarily closed posterior rectus sheath and an inlay mesh bridged the defect left in the anterior rectus sheath. The patient was discharged 3 days postoperatively, had minimal pain complaints, and was satisfied with cosmetic results at 1-month and later follow ups. One year postoperatively, she gave uncomplicated vaginal birth. We conclude that, in select cases, management of a large, symptomatic AWE may benefit from a multidisciplinary approach, where symptom relief and an aesthetically pleasing result for the patient can be achieved in a single procedure. We distinctively describe double mesh repair as a viable consideration for reconstruction in AWE and review current considerations in mesh repair of the abdominal wall. Further studies into this topic are warranted.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-2336-0073","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,30]],"date-time":"2024-05-30T22:40:23Z","timestamp":1717108823000},"page":"076-081","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Abdominal Wall Reconstruction in Abdominal Wall Endometriosis: A Case Report and Literature Review"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"52","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8764-7744","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Otis C.","family":"van Varsseveld","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands"},{"name":"Department of Plastic, Reconstructive and Hand Surgery, Cura\u00e7ao Medical Center, Willemstad, Cura\u00e7ao"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-9529-0116","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gustavo G.","family":"Koeijers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic, Reconstructive and Hand Surgery, Cura\u00e7ao Medical Center, Willemstad, Cura\u00e7ao"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-9117-8014","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juan M.","family":"Rodriguez Vitoria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Cura\u00e7ao Medical Center, Willemstad, Cura\u00e7ao"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4545-3903","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Igor","family":"Gomes Bravio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Cura\u00e7ao Medical Center, Willemstad, Cura\u00e7ao"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,11]]},"reference":[{"issue":"03","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"478","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jmig.2017.01.005","article-title":"Risk factors, clinical presentation, and outcomes for abdominal wall endometriosis","volume":"24","author":"Z Khan","year":"2017","journal-title":"J Minim Invasive Gynecol"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"373","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jmig.2019.10.004","article-title":"Extrapelvic endometriosis: a systematic review","volume":"27","author":"M P Andres","year":"2020","journal-title":"J Minim Invasive Gynecol"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"207","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjsurg.2007.07.035","article-title":"Abdominal wall endometriosis: a surgeon's perspective and review of 445 cases","volume":"196","author":"J D Horton","year":"2008","journal-title":"Am J Surg"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"116","DOI":"10.1097\/OGX.0000000000000399","article-title":"Diagnosis and management of abdominal wall endometriosis: a systematic review and clinical recommendations","volume":"72","author":"N B Rindos","year":"2017","journal-title":"Obstet Gynecol Surv"},{"issue":"06","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"596","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9610(03)00072-2","article-title":"Abdominal wall endometriomas","volume":"185","author":"R G Blanco","year":"2003","journal-title":"Am J Surg"},{"issue":"05","key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1295","DOI":"10.1097\/PRS.0b013e3182a4c393","article-title":"Does mesh location matter in abdominal wall reconstruction?
