Abstract
Endometriosis, a chronic disease affecting millions of women of reproductive age, is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus. Its clinical and pathogenic heterogeneity, along with the diversity of its manifestations, from chronic pelvic pain to infertility and involvement of distant organs such as the ureter, make it a significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenge in modern gynecology. Recent academic literature has deepened the understanding of this complex pathology, re-evaluating its underlying mechanisms, optimizing diagnostic strategies, and refining management approaches. This critical review article synthesizes and evaluates the main themes and findings of a selection of key publications in gynecological research, with a particular focus on deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and ureteral endometriosis (UE). Through a comparative analysis and integrative synthesis, the aim is to identify interconnections between different research perspectives, highlight the most relevant medical and research implications, and contribute to a more nuanced and expert understanding of the current state of knowledge in this field. A precise and high-level critical analysis tone will be maintained, using technical language specific to gynecological research and adhering to academic citation standards to ensure the integrity and objectivity of the review.
