Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract is the most common site of extra pelvic endometriosis, with the rectum and sigmoid colon being the most frequently affected areas. Its diagnosis is still very difficult, especially when it manifests itself as an acute occlusion. We report the case of a patient admitted to the emergency room for an occlusive syndrome on a sigmoid process and who was operated on with colorectal resection and it was the anatomopathological examination that led to the diagnosis of endometriosis.
