Summary

Endometriosis is a common disease with an incidence rate of 15% in women of childbearing age, and is a chronic disease that significantly affects women's quality of life by causing two problems: pain and infertility. The usual treatment for ovarian endometrioma is surgery, and the most common surgical method is laparoscopy, however, Surgery has the disadvantage of deteriorating ovarian function. Previous studies reported that local injection of vasopressin may minimize damage to the ovarian tissue during the surgical procedure. Currently, the best way to evaluate ovarian function is to measure AMH (anti-mullerian hormone). However, previous studies has not evaluated ovarian function by AMH. Aim of this study is to compare the anti-mullarian hormone (AMH) change in vasopressin-administered patients after unilateral endometrioma surgery. In this study, antimullerian hormone (AMH) will be used as an indicator of ovarian function evaluation, and will be evaluated before surgery, 6 and 12 months after surgery. Subjects were allocated randomly with stratification of AMH level 3.0mg / ml.

Conditions

  • Unilateral Ovarian Endometrioma

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Vasopressin injection

The intervention consists of five steps: rupture the ovarian endometrial cyst and remove the ''chocolate fluid;'' inject diluted vasopressin solution into the interface between endometrioma and ovarian parenchyma; stop injecting until the solution overflow; separate the endometrioma away from the ovarian parenchyma; and coagulate bleeding spots and suture the ovary.
