Explanation:
Obliterate: close up, blocked, covered by...
Cul-de-sac: literally means dead end. The female pelvis has an anterior cul-de-sac and a posterior cul-de-sac. The anterior cul-de-sac is the area between the pubic bone and the uterus. The bladder is located at the bottom of the anterior cul-de-sac. The posterior cul-de-sac is located behind the uterus. The cervix, top of the vagina, the rectum and the uterosacral ligaments all come together at the bottom of the posterior cul-de-sac. Endometriosis, especially deep invasive endometriosis, is frequently found in this area. Symptoms associated with endometriosis in this area include pain with intercourse, pain with bowel movements, leg pain and lower back pain.

The pt. must have endometriosis invading the pouch of Douglas or posterior cul-de-sac. Her bowel has been involved in the inflammatory process, and is now immobile and pretty much fixed by adhesions to the cervix, vagina, fallopian tubes, and ovaries.
All these organs together form a bulky mass that usually requires surgical intervention.
