Objective To explore the relation between ultrasound images of endometriosis and its clinical symptoms. Methods Choosing clinical data of 300 patients with endometriosis pathologically diagnosed between January 2009 and January 2014, we retrospectively analyzed ultrasound images and clinical symptoms, using Chisquare test for statistical analysis, and the index P<0.05 was statistically significant. Results In patients with big endometriosis' nidus, the menstrual quantity increased, menstrual cycle prolonged, the incidence of abnormally vaginal bleeding was high (χ²=11.749, P=0.001; χ²=4.847, P=0.028; χ²=5.686, P=0.017). In patients whose endometriosis were located in posterior uterine wall, the menstrual quantity increased, and the incidence of abnormally vaginal bleeding was high (χ²=5.188, P=0.023; χ²=49.691, P<0.001). The size of endometriosis' nidus had nothing to do with dysmenorrhea, constipation and frequent micturition (P>0.05). The position of endometriosis' nidus had nothing to do with menostaxis, dysmenorrhea, constipation and frequent micturition (P>0.05). Conclusion The size of endometriosis' nidus has a connection with the clinical symptoms of menorrhea, menostaxis and abnormally vaginal bleeding; the position of endometriosis' nidus has a connection with the clinical symptoms of menorrhea and abnormally vaginal bleeding. The results of ultrasonography should be combined with clinical symptoms in diagnosing endometriosis, avoiding missed-diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
