| Core Tip |
Pelvic deep infiltrating endometriosis is a disabling disease of increasing rate. Today new medical and surgical therapies are proposed in the management of pain and infertility, and the choice of an optimal treatment strategy requires a precise anatomic evaluation. Several imaging techniques are available, either additive or competitive, in this staging. Rectosigmoid endoscopic-ultrasonography (RS-EUS), is routinely used in the field of gastroenterology, mostly for staging of rectal cancer. Few studies have demonstrated it could also be of interest to image endometriotic recto-sigmoid infiltrations. In this review, we tried to assess indications and results of RS-EUS, compared to those of magnetic resonance imaging and transvaginal sonography. |
