Deep endometriosis infiltrating the recto-sigmoid: critical factors to consider before management
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Deep endometriosis invading the bowel constitutes a major challenge for the gynecologist. In addition to the greater impact on pain, the high incidence of surgical morbidity involved with bowel endometriosis poses a therapeutic dilemma for the surgeon. Intestinal involvement by deep endometriotic nodules has been estimated to occur in 8-12% of women with endometriosis. Individual and clinical factors, pre-operative morphologic characteristics from imaging, surgical considerations and impact on quality of life are critical variables that should be considered in determining the best therapeutic strategy for a patient with deep endometriosis involving the sigmoid and/or the rectum. Pre-operative planning is fundamental for defining the optimal therapeutic strategy; patient counseling of treatment options, and when surgery is indicated, involvement of a multidisciplinary surgical team is required. METHODS: The PubMed and Cochrane database were searched for all original and review articles published in English, French and Italian, until June 2014. Search terms included 'deep endometriosis', 'surgical and clinical approach', 'bowel disease', 'quality of life', 'management of deep endometriosis'. Special attention was paid to articles comparing features of discoid and segmental resection. RESULTS: The rationale for the best therapeutic options for patients with deep endometriosis has been shown and an evidence-based treatment algorithm for determining when and which surgical intervention may be required is proposed. In deciding the best treatment option for patients with deep endometriosis involving the sigmoid and rectum, it is important to understand how the different clinical factors and pre-operative morphologic imaging affect the algorithm. Surgery is not indicated in all patients with deep endometriosis, but, when surgery is chosen, a complete resection by the most appropriate surgical team is required in order to achieve the best patient outcome. CONCLUSION: In women with deep endometriosis, surgery is the therapy of choice for symptomatic patients when deep lesions do not improve with a medical treatment.

In the citing paper
“Recurring release of mediators of inflammation, such as prostaglandins and cytokines, may cause a functional-type, mostly cyclic pain, such as irritative-type intestinal symptoms, whereas occlusive-type intestinal symptoms are generally the mechanical consequence of fibrotic tissue retraction, but they may be influenced also by inflammatory changes of bowel wall nodules (3,6,7).”

In the citing paper
“In general, the majority of gynecological and/or colorectal surgeons may prefer segmental resection for multifocal and large nodules exceeding at least 3–4 cm, whereas small nodules <3 cm and/or DE not deeply infiltrating the muscular layer would be treated with FTDR resection or partial thickness discoid resection, or so‐called shaving.”

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“There is, so far, no real consensus on how to optimally treat colorectal endometriosis surgically, since the application of the main three techniques, namely, segmental colorectal resection, full thickness discoid resection (FTDR) and so‐called shaving, depends on various factors which may differ from unit to unit and surgeon to surgeon.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
