This review of eight articles identifies an association between deep endometriosis and incidental tumors, specifically clear cell carcinoma in women with endometriomas and colorectal cancer in those with deep or abdominal wall disease.

This review article investigates the incidental discovery of tumors in patients undergoing surgery for deep infiltrating endometriosis. The authors conducted a literature search across PubMed, BVS, and Google Scholar to identify studies linking endometriosis with subsequent neoplastic diagnoses. Key findings indicate that women with endometriomas have a higher incidence of clear cell carcinoma, while those with deep or abdominal wall endometriosis show increased rates of colorectal cancer. The study highlights the potential malignant transformation of endometriotic tissue as a significant clinical concern. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically examining the association between deep infiltrating lesions and secondary malignancies such as ovarian and colorectal cancers.
