Abstract

The article includes a clinical case of a patient with deep infiltrating endometriosis with rectum involving and using intraoperative controlled fluorescence in order to increase the radicality of surgery and improve the prognosis of the disease. Surgical excision of the endometrioitic nodules is the only effective way of treating patients with colorectal endometriosis in terms of relieving pain, improving quality of life and restoring reproductive function. The possible types of surgical interventions can be performed: endometrioid lesion shaving, discoid or circular intestinal resection with anastomosis. The extent of the operation is determined by the following morphological parameters: the number of endometrioid infiltrates of the intestinal wall, the size of each of them, the degree of involvement of the intestine circumference, the depth of the intestinal wall lesion, the distance from the level of anus to the endometriotic nodule and lymphatic dissemination.
