Chocolate cyst of ovary: An
endometrioma, endometrioid cyst,
endometrial cyst, or chocolate cyst
is caused by endometriosis, and
formed when a tiny patch of
endometrial tissue (the mucous
membrane that makes up the inner
layer of the uterine wall) bleeds,
sloughs off, becomes transplanted,
and grows and enlarges inside the
ovaries.
