[Minimal celiosurgery in endometriosis].
After a brief consideration of the recent therapeutic approaches to endometriosis, the Authors suggest their laparoscopic method which includes drainage by aspiration of the endometrioma using a wide biopsy, followed by careful lavage of the cystic cavity and abdomen and partial thermocoagulation of the same capsule and any visible residual implants. The patients were admitted for infertility in 47% of cases, chorionic pelvic pain in 16% of cases and pelvic mass in 10%. By using this procedure symptomatic relief was seen in 72% of cases and a pregnancy rate of 81% obtained with encouraging results even in moderate and severe endometriosis.
