Treatment and fertility outcomes of moss-like endometriosis with hemorrhagic ascites: A case report
Ascites is a rare manifestation of endometriosis and its diagnosis is difficult. Laparoscopy or exploratory laparotomy is required to confirm this diagnosis. Cyclic dysmenorrhea and abnormal menstruation warrant vigilance and should be investigated carefully. Hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy should be avoided as much as possible in patients with fertility needs and age adaptation, and symptoms can be successfully resolved with medical therapy.
