No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Laparoscopic excision of endometriotic cysts is the main stream surgical intervention for treatment of endometriosis. However there is evidence that intervention may effect ovarian reserve by destruction of healthy ovarian tissue during surgery. Available evidence on the topic are contradictory and employed research methodology are diverse. There is need for an adequately powered research with proper methodology to assess actual effects of surgery.

Conditions

  • Endometriosis
  • Ovarian Reserve

Interventions

PROCEDURE
