: Bowel endometriosis (BE) is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue within the muscular layer of the bowel wall. When BE does not result in the severe obstruction to fecal transit and in the absence of (sub)occlusive symptoms, the decision to perform surgery can be challenging, as intestinal procedures are associated with higher complication rates and long-term bowel dysfunction. This cross-sectional study aims to evaluate the quality of life (QoL) in patients with BE who avoided surgery, as well as to investigate the impact of the characteristics of BE nodules on the QoL and intestinal function.

Division of Colorectal Surgery, Department of Surgery, Tri-Service General Hospital, National Defense Medical Center, Taipei 11490, Taiwan.
Our previous retrospective observational study demonstrated the safety of laparoscopically assisted subtotal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis and preservation of the superior rectal artery (SRA), without instances of leakage, in patients with slow-transit constipation (STC). Thus, we extended the enrollment period and enlarged the sample size to detect the differences in the postoperative complications and surgical and functional outcomes between patients who underwent laparoscopically assisted subtotal colectomy with and without SRA preservation. We conducted a retrospective single-center analysis of patients with STC who underwent laparoscopically assisted subtotal colectomy between 2016 and 2020.
