The relationship between endodontic and periodontal disease has been a subject of confusion and controversy
for many years. Problems with the dental pulp and periodontium are responsible for over 50% of dental deaths.
The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of endoperineal injury among patients in the institution. This
retrospective study included patients diagnosed with endoperineal injury between June 2019 and March 2020
in a private institution. Variables such as age, sex, and periintimal lesion site were obtained from patient
records. Data were collated and statistically analyzed using IBM SPSS version 23 to obtain the results.
Descriptive and inferential statistics were performed.In our study, 17.3% of 150 patients had periodontal
pathology. The prevalence of endometriosis was 12.7% in men and 4.7% in women. When age and prevalence
of endometriosis were analyzed, a high prevalence (5.3%) was observed in the age group of 31-40 years.
Additionally, there was a statistically significant association between age and intraperineal injury, but there
was no statistically significant association between sex and intraperineal injury.The current study showed that
17.3% of the study population had endometriosis. Additionally, the prevalence of endometriosis was higher in
men (12.7%) and in the age group of 31-40 years.
