This literature review evaluates the management of urinary tract endometriosis, specifically bladder endometriosis, from diagnosis to treatment given the condition's rarity and the controversy surrounding its clinical approach.

One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

Endometriosis is not only a source of individual distress but also a burden for health care systems. Endometriosis’ prevalence remains unknown, however, it was estimated to be 6-20%, minimum. Urinary tract endometriosis (UTE) is found in 1-2% of patients with endometriosis. Bladder endometriosis (BE), defined as endometriosis infiltrating the detrusor, is relatively rare, representing 1% of all endometriosis cases and 84% of cases of urogenital endometriosis. The treatment of urinary tract endometriosis is controversial because the rarity of this condition makes randomized studies almost unfeasible. This literature review was performed to evaluate urinary tract endometriosis’ management, from diagnosis to treatment
