Urinary endometriosis a rare condition accounting for 1-5.5% of all of the extragenital endometriosis locations. Bladder endometriosis is the most common form of urinary endometriosis, comprising 85% of cases. There is no single approach to treating bladder endometriosis patients with this pathology. Multidisciplinary collaboration between urologists and gynecologists aimed to develop an appropriate treatment strategy is essential in the management of bladder endometriosis.

Female bladder pain syndrome (FBPS), previously known as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome, is a life-altering and morbid condition that occurs primarily in female patients and can be variable in presentation. Given the absence of pathognomonic symptoms and sensitive diagnostic tests, significant symptomatic overlap with numerous other pelvic conditions (such as pelvic floor tension myalgia or endometriosis) occurring in women makes diagnosis of FBPS challenging. The frequent co-occurrence of FBPS with other pain conditions and functional somatic syndromes further complicates diagnosis and management.
