Superinfection of Rectovaginal Endometriosis: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

In the case of a pelvic abscess, the superinfection of endometriosis lesions should be suspected, and this can represent the onset symptom of endometriosis. Ultrasonography may show nodular or flat hypoechoic lesions with hyperechoic debris and peripheral positive color/power Doppler intensities. The goal of management is to drain the abscess, either percutaneously or via traditional surgery, followed by proper hormonal therapy to reduce recurrence.
