Although endometriosis is a common disease in women of childbearing age, intestinal endometriosis is unusual and may cause clinically significant complications.We report a 37-year-old woman who presented with pelvic mass. She was operated on with a intraoperative diagnosis of colon malignancy. The diagnosis of rectosigmoid endometriosis was made only after histological examination of the resected specimen. Intestinal endometriosis has a diverse clinical spectrum, with nonspecific features in many patients. In female patients who have pelvic mass, intestinal endometriosis should also be considered in the differential diagnosis.

Rekto-Sigmoid Kolonda Ekstragenital Endometriozis: Olgu Sunumu

Öz

Endometriozis, doğurganlık çağındaki kadınlarda sık görülen bir hastalık olmakla birlikte, intestinal endometriozis oldukça nadir görülen ve önemli klinik sorunlara yol açabilen bir hastalıktır. Bu sunumda, pelvik kitle nedeniyle opere edilen operasyon sırasında kolon kanseri düşünülmekle birlikte postoperatif histopatolojik tanısı rekto-sigmoidal endometriosis olduğu saptanan 37 yaşında kadın hasta tartışılmıştır. İntestinal endometriozis bir çok hastada spesifik olmayan bulgu ve semptomlara neden olmaktadır. Pelvik kitle ile başvuran kadın hastaların ayırıcı tanısında intestinal endometriozis olabileceği de akılda tutulmalıdır.
