Deep-Infiltrating Endometriosis Causing Acute Mechanical Intestinal Obstruction Without Intestinal Invasion: A Case Report with Diagnostic and Surgical Insights

This rare case demonstrates small bowel obstruction caused by DIE adhesions without intestinal invasion. Preoperative imaging facilitated a minimally invasive approach, while combined surgical and hormonal therapy was associated with reduced recurrence risk. These findings expand the recognized spectrum of endometriosis-related intestinal complications and support tailored management strategies.

Abstract

This rare case demonstrates small bowel obstruction caused by DIE adhesions without intestinal invasion. Preoperative imaging facilitated a minimally invasive approach, while combined surgical and hormonal therapy was associated with reduced recurrence risk. These findings expand the recognized spectrum of endometriosis-related intestinal complications and support tailored management strategies.
