Abstract
Endometriosis is a common finding in premenopausal women and a significant number of cases presenting digestive tract involvement at the time of diagnosis. However, most of these patients present pelvic nodules involving the rectosigmoidian junction, other digestive tract segments being less commonly affected. We present the case of a 37-year-old nulliparous woman who presented for diffuse abdominal pain and vomiting; she was diagnosed with complete ileocecal obstruction due to an endometriosis nodule in association with bilateral ovarian endometriosis lesions invading the rectosigmodian wall. A right colectomy with ileocolic anastomosis in association with bilateral cystectomy and rectosigmodian resection was successfully performed. The histopathological examination confirmed the endometriosic origin of the nodules invading the rectosigmodian and ileocecal wall, that was similar to the one described at the level of the ovarian cysts.
