| Popis: | Discussed in this report is the use of imaging modalities to aid in the preoperative diagnosis and localization of pathology in this rare condition treated with laparoscopic hemicolectomy. Endometriosis is a disease that can affect various organs, has an unclear symptomatology, and in extreme cases, can result in intestinal obstruction. This particular case illustrates the synchronous localization of endometriosis, both genital and intestinal, resulting in ileo-colic and colonic intussusception. The relative diagnostic and therapeutic approach for such a rare occurrence is discussed. |
