    Author: Feroci F, De Prizio M, Kröning KC, Moraldi L, Scatizzi M.
    Journal: G Chir; 2010 Mar; 31(3):100-2. PubMed ID: 20426921.
    Abstract:
    Endometriosis affects 10-20% of fertile women, and in 3-37% of them it extends to the bowel. Its location, in the ileal tract of the bowel, usually the end-part, is only the 7%; and the occurrence of intestinal obstruction is no more than 0.15% of patients affected by endometriosis. We present a case of acute bowel obstruction due to ileal endometriosis in a 39 years woman, diagnosed and treated by laparoscopic approach.
