This article examines the diagnostic utility of cystoscopy in identifying bladder endometriosis lesions that are not detected during standard laparoscopic evaluation. The authors highlight that while laparoscopy is the primary surgical approach for endometriosis, it may miss superficial or specific intravesical involvement that requires direct visualization via cystoscopy for accurate assessment and management. The text emphasizes the complementary role of cystoscopy in ensuring complete staging and treatment planning for patients with suspected urinary tract involvement. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically focusing on the diagnostic evaluation and detection of bladder endometriosis lesions using cystoscopy.
