장폐쇄를 유발한 자궁내막증 = A case of bowel obstruction due to endometriosis

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

We have experienced a case of intestinal obstruction due to endometriosis. It may involve intestinal wall and protrude into its lumen and patients with severe intestinal involvement usually require surgical resection. Clinical manifestations are not specific, making the preoperative diagnosis difficult to establish. An emergency laparotomy was performed. The pathologic examination of the resected sample revealed endometriosis of sigmoid colon. Endometriosis can involve the intestinal tract extensively, causing a variety of clinical symptoms, and can result in a spectrum of mucosal alterations.
