Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 82925
  • Image ID: 53636050
  • Image stack position: 1/96
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Aux modality: C+ portal venous phase
  • Study findings: Abdominal CT scan shows a lobulated mass within the lower part of the right rectus abdominis muscle. The mass is hyperattenuating compared with muscle.The differential diagnosis remained unchanged from the previous ultrasound examination. Endometriosis was considered the most probable diagnosis, based on the typical location in the area of the Cesarian scar. Fibromatosis and other soft tissue tumors were included in the differential diagnosis as well. Additional findings: Multiple hypodense wedge areas in the right kidney cortex, compatible with pyelonephritis.
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Obstetrics
  • Findings: Lower abdomen ultrasound shows a well-defined round hypoechogenic mass with blood flow on Doppler. The mass is located in the patient's right abdomen wall muscles. The typical mass location in the area of the Cesarian scar raised the possibility of endometriosis. Fibromatosis and other soft tissue tumors were included in the differential diagnosis.
