This paper reports three cases of premenopausal women with large bowel endometriosis leading to intermittent bowel obstruction. The authors describe endometriosis involvement of the large bowel as the cause of the obstructive episodes in these patients. The main limitation is that the evidence is based on a small case series rather than a systematic study or broader cohort. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically large bowel endometriosis causing intermittent obstruction in premenopausal patients.
