Can bladder endometriosis be hard to diagnose? A two-case report and literature review

Diagnosing BE is often straightforward when typical clinical and imaging findings align. However, diagnostic delays are common due to the condition's rarity and symptom overlap. Early diagnosis is crucial for achieving better outcomes. For women of reproductive age experiencing recurrent pelvic symptoms, even atypical ones, early pelvic imaging examinations are recommended. MRI plays a key role in diagnosing BE, guiding treatment decisions, and assisting with differential diagnosis. Enhancing awareness of BE among clinicians and radiologists is essential to expedite diagnosis and treatment.
