This review article by James M. Church surveys recent literature on a broad spectrum of colorectal surgical conditions, including neoplastic diseases, ischemic colitis, and infectious disorders. The text specifically highlights endometriosis affecting the colon and rectum alongside other topics such as radiation injury, functional diseases, and hemophilia. It serves as a concise overview of miscellaneous gastrointestinal pathologies rather than an in-depth analysis of any single condition. Relevance to endometriosis: listed as one indication for surgical intervention in the colorectal tract, though the paper's main focus is a general review of various bowel diseases.
