Abstract

The data that support the findings of this study are available on request from the corresponding author. The data are not publicly available due to privacy or ethical restrictions. Figure S1 Histological image (hematoxylin and eosin staining) with scale bar showing area of transition (blue arrow) from benign endometriosis (green arrow) to endometrioid cancer (red arrow) in the urinary bladder wall. Figure S2 Histological image (hematoxylin and eosin staining) with scale bar showing anterior uterine wall with benign endometriosis (green arrow), urinary bladder (blue arrow) and endometrioid cancer between bladder and anterior uterine wall (red arrow). Videoclip S1 Grayscale and power Doppler transvaginal ultrasound imaging showing the urinary bladder and deep endometriosis (Deep endo, ), acquired in October 2023. Hyperechogenic irregular tumor can be seen protruding into urinary bladder. Below the tumor, a rounded hypoechogenic nodule with slightly irregular borders, containing hyperechogenic spots and small cysts can be seen, which corresponds to a nodule of deep endometriosis seen on transvaginal ultrasound in the same patient in October 2010 (Figure 1).
