This chapter defines endometriosis as the presence of endometrial glands and endometrial stroma outside the uterine cavity and classifies it by the location of ectopic endometrial tissue into internal genital endometriosis (adenomyosis uteri), external genital endometriosis, and extragenital endometriosis. It provides this conceptual framework rather than presenting new experimental or clinical findings, and the main caveat is that the excerpt is a definitional/classificatory overview with no methodological details or results. It cites earlier work proposing pelvic endometriosis classifications and references treatments and pathophysiology-related reviews. Relevance to endometriosis: This paper is centrally about endometriosis—providing its definition and taxonomy, including explicit inclusion of adenomyosis (endometriosis genitalis interna) within the same classification scheme.
