Abstract:
Rupture of ovarian endometrioma is rarely occurred. It causes chemical panperitonitis resulting in low fertility and requiring differential diagnosis of acute abdomen. So it needs fast and accurate diagnosis. We have experienced two cases of chemical panperitonitis due to ruptured ovarian endometrioma managed by pelviscopy with a brief review of the literature.
