We are reporting a case of Endosalpingiosis which presented as a cystic mass and peritoneal implants. Clinically and radiologically, this was interpreted as an ovarian tumor. Mullerianosis is a very rare benign tumor-like lesion. Awareness of this lesion is necessary to avoid misdiagnosis by clinicians, radiologists, and pathologists.
