Abstract

Deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) of the ileum is an uncommon lesion that may be severe in its clinical presentation. Its diagnosis is challenging in the absence of a gynecological history of endometriosis and because of its anatomical location. We read the article by Sánchez, Candel, and Albarracín, and now report an additional case that was managed urgently.
