Endometriosis of the Small Bowel: A Diagnostic Enigma.

Endometriosis refers to the implantation and proliferation of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. Small bowel endometriosis is an uncommon location for endometrial deposits and when present, it can pose diagnostic difficulty. Here, we present a case of a 50-year-old female with small bowel endometriosis who suffered from recurrent attacks of colicky abdominal pain for few months. Her cross-sectional investigations remained largely inconclusive. Ultimately, she underwent diagnostic laparoscopy which was diagnostic and therapeutic.
