Abstract

The intestinal occlusion acute is an emergency and therapeutic diagnostic. A rectal tumor is rarely the cause in a young adult. We are carrying the case of a patient of 43years old, received at emergency on a board of intestinal occlusion acute due to a rectal tumor of a fortuitous discovery during the operation. The final diagnosis after a histopathologic examination was for the less unexpected. It was rectal endometriosis in its tumor-like. A complementary medical care obtains satisfactory results.
