This retrospective study analyzed six women with endometriosis involving the rectum or sigmoid colon who underwent laparoscopic partial bowel resection at a single university hospital in 2005–2006. The paper reports that mean age at diagnosis and surgery was 36.1 and 36.5 years, all were nulligravida, 50% were infertile, and one-third had rectal resection only while others had sigmoid or combined rectum-sigmoid resections; most had prior endocrine treatment. Surgical duration averaged 201 minutes with a mean hospital stay of 8 days, and the only noted complication was post-surgery bleeding at the enteroanastomosis requiring transfusion and rectoscopic intervention, with follow-up colonoscopies described as normal. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it specifically examines laparoscopic rectum (and related sigmoid/rectosigmoid) partial resections for severe rectovaginal endometriosis.
