Ureterstenose bei tief infiltrierender Endometriose – eine oft zu spät erkannte Komplikation
Deep infiltrating endometriosis affects the urinary tract in 1-5% of women, commonly involving the ureter and potentially leading to undetected ureteral stenosis and kidney failure.

This paper describes the frequency and clinical challenge of urinary tract involvement in deep infiltrating endometriosis and presents a case report of a 45-year-old woman with a right adnexal mass evaluated in a gynecology setting. After planned laparoscopy with preoperative ureteral stenting, intraoperative findings showed a right endometriosis cyst and a deep endometriosis–related ureteral stricture over 5 cm in the area of the fossa ovarica, which could be completely freed after extensive mobilization. Three months after removal of the ureteral stent, the patient developed grade II right hydronephrosis, and the authors note that the upper and lower urinary tract can be involved and should be assessed in appropriate patients, while the main limitation is that this is a single case report without broader generalizable outcomes. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically ureteral stenosis as a late complication of deep infiltrating endometriosis.
