Endometriosis is estrogen dependent disease in reproductive age. Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory gynecologic disease. Problems associated with endometriosis include dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and infertility. Postmenopausal endometriosis is rare. Also, malignant transformation in endometriosis is rare. There is no report in Korea about serous adenocarcinoma arising from endometriosis after menopause. The authors present a case of serous adenocarcinoma arising from endometriosis after menopause with brief review of the literature.
