This case report describes a patient with severe Crohn's disease complicated by rectal endometriosis causing intestinal obstruction, illustrating the potential for these conditions to coexist and mimic neoplasms.

This case report describes a 33-year-old woman with severe Crohn’s disease who developed an acute obstructive abdomen due to deep infiltrating endometriosis of the rectum. Preoperative evaluation revealed complex anal fistulas and colonic ulcers consistent with inflammatory bowel disease, but surgical exploration identified complete obstruction caused by extensive rectal endometriosis alongside left-sided colitis. The patient underwent a sigmoidorectal resection with terminal colostomy and left salpingo-oophorectomy, with pathology confirming both conditions simultaneously. While the clinical presentation of active Crohn’s disease and intestinal endometriosis can be indistinguishable, this case highlights the necessity of considering endometriosis in young women with chronic pelvic pain and obstructive symptoms even when inflammatory bowel disease is suspected. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically the rare association with Crohn's disease leading to intestinal obstruction.
