Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Gastroenterology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Colorectal endometriosis is a rare condition with diverse clinical and imaging presentations.
  • Accurate diagnosis and effective management remain challenging.

Observation:

  • A 42-year-old female patient diagnosed with rectal endometriosis.

Findings:

  • Treatment with danazol, alongside monitoring of cancer antigen 125 (CA 125), cancer antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), and estrogen levels, proved successful.
  • The patient underwent excision of reproductive organs, avoiding colorectal excision.

Implications:

  • This case highlights a viable medical management strategy for rectal endometriosis.
  • Non-surgical approaches may be feasible, potentially preserving colorectal integrity.
