This paper argues that peritoneal endometriosis, ovarian endometriosis, and adenomyotic nodules of the rectovaginal septum represent distinct disease entities.

This paper, a 2019 reprint in Fertility and Sterility, addresses whether three lesions in the rectovaginal septum region—peritoneal endometriosis, ovarian endometriosis, and adenomyotic nodules of the rectovaginal septum—represent distinct entities. It is presented as an article arguing for differentiation among these conditions rather than treating them as a single pathologic process, drawing on prior characterization of the lesions. The main limitation is that the provided record does not include the full methods or results text needed to evaluate the specific study design and evidentiary basis. This paper is centrally about endometriosis and adenomyosis—specifically, distinguishing peritoneal and ovarian endometriosis from adenomyotic nodules of the rectovaginal septum.
