Deep infiltrating endometriosis with bowel involvement remains the most difficultly treated form of the endometriosis. It is defined as endometriosis penetrating greater than 5mm beneath the peritoneum. Treatment of severe forms of deep infiltrating endometriosis with bowel wall involvement is one of the most complex issues in modern surgical gynaecology. Efficacy of the multidisciplinary approach to operative treatment of patients with deep infiltrating endometriosis and bowel involvement is demonstrated via an example of our own clinical case.
