This case report describes a 46-year-old woman presenting with recurrent sanguineous and mucous diarrhea and tenesms for several years. Diagnostic evaluation, including colonoscopy and imaging, revealed a sigmoid colon stenosis without visible mucosal changes, which was confirmed as endometriosis via histological biopsy after other causes were ruled out. The patient achieved complete symptom resolution following conservative treatment with the GnRH agonist goserelin. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically its manifestation as intestinal disease in the sigmoid colon.
