The study involved 27 hospitals from 10\nregions of Ukraine and included 9,157 reproductive women who had a painful mass in their previous abdominal surgery scar area. Definitions of endometriosis\nwere adapted from the WHO.\nResults: Among 9,157 patients, 387 (4.2%) abdominal walls endometriosis (AWE) were observed.\nOf all cases 82.2% women had cesarean scar endometriosis and 17.8% had scar endometriosis related to gynecologic surgical procedure. The incidence of AWE\nassociated with history of cesarean section, gynecological abdominal hysterectomy and laparoscopic procedures was 6.3%, 2.3%, and 1.2%, respectively. The\nmain symptoms of scar endometriosis were palpable abdominal mass (100%) and cyclic pain (86.8%). The latency period between cesarean section procedure\nand of cesarean scar endometriosis (CSE) symptom onset was 31.8 \u00b1 23.6 months. The duration between the onset of symptoms of CSE and this surgery was\n28.7 \u00b1 25.4 months. The diagnosis of CSE was made through a histopathological examination.\nConclusions: In Ukraine abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE), is a relatively uncommon entity that usually develops at the site of a surgical scar that occurs\nafter obstetric or gynecologic surgeries. In our study the most frequently of all AWE cases was cesarean scar endometriosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.36740\/wlek\/215796","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,30]],"date-time":"2026-01-30T16:53:47Z","timestamp":1769792027000},"page":"2557-2564","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Abdominal wall endometriosis in Ukraine: A multicenter study"],"prefix":"10.36740","author":[{"given":"Aidyn G.","family":"Salmanov","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Volodymyr V.","family":"Artyomenko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Victor O.","family":"Rud","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vitalii S.","family":"Strakhovetskyi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Svitlana M.","family":"Korniyenko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Olga V.","family":"Gorbunova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Serhii Yu.","family":"Vdovychenko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Oleksandr V.","family":"Zabudskyi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Orusia A.","family":"Kovalyshyn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Olena O.","family":"Lytvak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Viktor I.","family":"Litus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tetiana A.","family":"Struk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ihor","family":"Paliga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Olexandr P.","family":"Kononets","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Igor V.","family":"Maidannyk","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Olena O.","family":"Chorna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"22436","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,30]]},"container-title":["Wiadomo\u015bci Lekarskie"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wiadomoscilekarskie.pl\/pdf-215796-135297","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wiadomoscilekarskie.pl\/pdf-215796-135297","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,30]],"date-time":"2026-01-30T16:53:47Z","timestamp":1769792027000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wiadomoscilekarskie.pl\/Abdominal-wall-endometriosis-in-Ukraine-A-multicenter-study,215796,0,2.html"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,30]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"12","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}},"alternative-id":["215796"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.36740\/wlek\/215796","relation":{},"ISSN":["0043-5147","2719-342X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0043-5147","type":"print"},{"value":"2719-342X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,30]]}}}
