Abstract

The Kissing ovaries sign is a radiological sign seen in women with deep pelvic endometriosis. It refers to abutment of the ovaries within the cul-de-sac. The term kissing ovaries was first described by Ghezzi et al. (2005) and has been since used widely. When seen on imaging it indicates moderate to severe endometriosis with the ovaries tethered within abnormal pelvic soft tissue, which may warrant surgical management.
