Summary: | Leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata (LPD) is a rare but well-documented disorder mainly found in young women. Occasionally, LPD coexists with endometriosis and/or multi-cystic mesothelioma. Endocervicosis is another uncommon condition, which was recognized as a distinct entity by Clement and Young in 1992 and has been documented involving the lymph node, pelvic peritoneum, bladder and small intestine. We described a case with a unique combination of LPD and endocervicosis. |
