Endometriosis in the Canal of Nuck: Atypical Manifestations in An Unusual Location

Abstract

The canal of Nuck is an embryological remnant of the processus vaginalis and has been described as a site for endometriosis seeding. Endometriosis localized to the canal of Nuck is exceedingly rare with three cases reported. The case of a 31-year-old woman with an endometrioma in the canal of Nuck, made diagnostically challenging by atypical imaging and clinical findings, is described.
