This case series and literature review examines the endoscopic characteristics of colorectal endometriosis in 614 patients operated on between 2009 and 2022. The study identifies five distinct endoscopic findings, including mucosal irregularity, subepithelial pseudotumors, extrinsic compression with normal mucosa, epithelial pseudotumors, and cecal appendiceal lesions. The authors note that these observations align with existing literature and emphasize the importance for colonoscopists to recognize these patterns in women of reproductive age presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically the endoscopic diagnosis and classification of deep infiltrating lesions affecting the colorectum.
