Abstract

Endometriosis is a disorder that commonly affects females of reproductive age and is defined as the presence of endometrial glands or stroma outside the uterine cavity. Patients typically present with cyclical pain during menses. Endometriosis can be characterized as endopelvic or extrapelvic depending on the sites involved. We report a case of a 40-year-old, right-hand-dominant, female who presented with a painful mass in her right proximal forearm. She was ultimately diagnosed with intramuscular endometriosis and underwent surgical excision.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
