This case series examines magnetic resonance imaging characteristics of deep infiltrating endometriosis nodules in patients before and after pregnancy. The authors document specific radiological features, including bowel involvement, uterosacral ligament infiltration, and ovarian endometriomas, using sagittal and axial plane views with fat saturation techniques. The study highlights how these lesions appear on MRI scans to aid in diagnosis and monitoring across different physiological states. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically the imaging presentation of deep infiltrating lesions and endometriomas in relation to pregnancy status.

Abstract

(A,B) sagittal plane, deep infiltrative endometriosis of the bowel (white arrow); (C,D) axial plane, deep infiltrative endometriosis of the uterosacral ligaments and posterior vaginal fornix (white circle); (E,F) axial plane, ovarian endometriosis, axial plane with fat saturation, illustrating a left endometrioma in T1-hypersignal (white arrow).
