Posttraumatic intrauterine omental implantation mimicking lipomatous lesion 16 years later

This brief communication describes a rare case where traumatic uterine perforation led to the implantation of omental tissue within the endometrial cavity. Sixteen years after the initial injury, the patient presented with symptoms that mimicked an endometrial lipoma, leading to the identification of the ectopic omental tissue. The authors emphasize that clinicians should consider posttraumatic omental implantation in the differential diagnosis when evaluating uterine lipomatous lesions. This paper is tangentially related to adenomyosis as it involves abnormal tissue implantation within the uterine wall, though it focuses on omental rather than endometrial stromal cells.
