The paper examines intestinal endometriosis through a clinical case and a narrative overview, focusing on diagnostic approach, clinical course, and emphasizing that intestinal involvement—usually sigmoid and rectal—can present with bowel habit changes and digestive bleeding. It reports a 26-year-old woman with 11 days of diffuse abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and obstipation who was initially treated conservatively for presumed acute obstructive abdomen due to adhesions; after no clinical improvement, surgery was performed on day 4, revealing a pseudotumoral lesion at the ileocecal transition causing proximal obstruction and treated with right ileocolectomy, with pathology confirming intestinal endometriosis of glandular and stromal pattern. A stated limitation is that intestinal endometriosis is uncommon, so evidence is largely case-based within this kind of approach, and the paper presents an overview rather than a systematic evaluation. Relevance to endometriosis: This paper is centrally about endometriosis—specifically intestinal endometriosis presenting as intestinal obstruction.
