1 ENDOMETRIOSIS AS A COMMON CAUSE OF PELVIC PAIN M.Basta Nikolić, S. Stojanović, O. Nikolić, T. Mrđanin, D. Donat, V. Žigić Center for Radiology, Clinical Center of Vojvodina Novi Sad

2 Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) Presence of pain >6m localized to the anatomic pelvis Severe enough to cause functional disability and require medical or surgical treatment Cause of ~40% laparoscopies and 10-15% hysterectomies

3 CAUSE OF CPP 1. Gyn and Obs 1/3 endometriosis 2. Urologic 3. GI 4. Vascular 1/3 adhesions 5. MS 6. Neuro 7. Psychological Neis KJ,Neis F. Chronic pelvic pain: cause, diagnosis and therapy from a gynaecologist s and an endoscopist s point of view. Gynecol Endocrinol.2009;25(11):

4 ENDOMETRIOSIS -presence of functional endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity

5 SYMPTOMS Infertility pelvic pain Unusual symptoms gastrointestinal involvement: catamenialdiarrhoea, rectal bleeding and constipation vesical involvement: urgency, frequency, haematuria thoracic involvement: pleuriticchest pain, pneumothorax, pleural effusions or cyclic haemoptysis asymptomatic: especially if disease is isolated to the peritoneum

6 AETHIOPATHOGENETIC MECHANISMS OF ENDOMETRIOSIS-ASSOCIATED CPP Nociceptive Inflammatory Neuropathic mechanisms

7 PATHOGENESIS metastatic theory metaplastic theory induction theory radiopedia.org

8 PREVALENCE 1 in 10 women Strongly linked to infertility 25-50% of infertile women have endometriosis 30-50% of women with endometriosis is infertile

12 LOCATION Most common: ovaries, pelvis, peritoneum Less common: C section scar, deep subperitoneal tissue, GI tract, bladder, chest, subcutaneous tissue Most common sites of pelvic involvement: Douglas pouch, uterosacral ligaments and torus uterinus

42 PROBLEMS Up to 10 years for diagnosis!!! Every woman who has endometriosis knows another one with the same problem. Every doctor has different opinion and advice. However, satisfactory treatment is still a distant dream for many patients!

43 What to say? Sometimes difficult to diagnose Right choice of therapy -does it exist? Find a way to send them to someone else Remember one among all colleagues who you do not like

45 Ten Imaging Pearls 1. Multiple T1-Hyperintenseadnexal cysts are specific for endometriomas 2. Female pelvis MR imaging protocols should include T1-weighted Fat-suppressed sequences 3. Low SI of adnexal masses on STIR MR images is not specific for mature cystic teratomaand does not exclude endometrioma MR Imaging of Endometriosis: Ten Imaging Pearls. RadioGraphics 2012; 32:

46 4. Benign endometriomas show restricted diffusion 5. Hematosalpinxshould be considered specific for pelvic endometriosis 6. Obstruction of antegrademenstrual flow increases the risk for endometriosis 7. Decidualizedendometriosis may mimic ovarian malignancy in pregnant women MR Imaging of Endometriosis: Ten Imaging Pearls. RadioGraphics 2012; 32:

47 8. Endometriomascan transform into clear cell or endometrioid epithelial ovarian carcinomas 9. Solid fibrotic masses of endometriosis are common and easily overlooked 10. Solid invasive endometriosis of the posterior uterus can mimic posterior segmental adenomyosis MR Imaging of Endometriosis: Ten Imaging Pearls. RadioGraphics 2012; 32:

48 CONCLUSION Consider endometriosis in the presence of gynecological symptomssuch as dysmenorrhoea,pelvic pain, dispareunia, infertility and fatigue in the presence of any of the above Or in women of reproductive age with non-gynecological cyclical symptoms (dyschezia,dysuria, haematuria, rectal bleeding, shoulder pain) MR is the imaging method of choice Laparoscopy is the golden standard of both diagnosis and treatment G.A.J.
