⚙ AI-generated summary by claude@2026-06+body, 2026-06-07 ⓘ

Endometriosis involves endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, often requiring interdisciplinary management, with urinary tract involvement, particularly bladder endometriosis and asymptomatic ureteral stenosis, necessitating routine surveillance and prompt surgical intervention.

The paper reviews endometriosis affecting the uro-genital tract, describing the disease as endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity and emphasizing that mechanisms remain incompletely understood, so causal therapy is not possible. It outlines that urinary tract involvement is not isolated but occurs in the context of genital tract endometriosis, with bladder endometriosis being most common, while ureteral stenosis is highlighted as a typically asymptomatic special case. The authors note that for women with deeply infiltrating endometriosis, the upper urinary tract should be routinely monitored to prevent kidney loss, and that hydronephrosis requires urgent surgical treatment even without symptoms. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically uro-genital tract involvement, including bladder endometriosis and ureteral complications like asymptomatic stenosis and hydronephrosis.
