Hemorrhagic ascites endometriosis could be a cause: a case report

Abstract Background Endometriosis is a condition in which tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus (called “the endometrium”) is found outside the uterus, where it induces a chronic inflammatory reaction that may result in scar tissue. Endometriosis with massive ascites causing abdominal diste...
