This chapter describes the most common MRI appearances after surgery for deep endometriosis, focusing on how to distinguish active lesions from fibrotic/cicatricial tissue. It also explains how colorectal anastomosis and urinary and intestinal dysfunctions may appear postoperatively. A key caveat is that it is an atlas-style description of imaging findings rather than a new empirical study with quantitative outcomes. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it specifically addresses postsurgical MRI findings in deep endometriosis and differentiation of active versus fibrotic postoperative tissue.
