Sumario:Endometriosis has been more common in recent decades as a result of improved diagnosis supported by enhanced clinical concepts and greater imaging tools. A multidisciplinary care strategy that extends beyond the cellular level is required for this complicated pathophysiological condition to enable patients to live disease-free lives. This case study features a young woman who was diagnosed with endometriosis and was anxious about future fertility. The condition eventually led to a series of events that defined the intricacy of the sickness involved and the accompanying complications that were better detected, and so, therapy was comparatively simplified by imaging, which helped manage the ailment and its issues. The related complications are well established; however, with the impending use of 3D imaging technology, the disease, its extent, and associated complications can be managed in a well-planned manner.
