title: [Surgical management of endometrioma: Result of French practice survey].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  There are many national and international recommendations and guidelines for the management of patients with endometrioma. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of these recommendations on the practice of French surgeons, and to assess their knowledge about the management of endometriomas.
  
  
  METHODS
  A self-questionnaire has been sent to the French members of the Society of Gynecologic Surgery and Pelvic (SCGP) in May 2015.
  
  
  RESULTS
  One hundred and forty-four members of the society (36 %) participated in the survey. Most of the practitioners (71 %) followed recommendations of the Collège National des Gynécologues Obstétriciens (CNGOF), 38 % followed the guidelines of European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE). One hundred percent of the surgeons declared that they practice laparoscopy when a surgical removal of the endometrioma is indicated. About treatment with GnRH analogue, 38 % of the practitioners declared that they prescribe an add back therapy immediately after the surgery, 43 % at 3 months, and 14 % declared that they never prescribe this treatment.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  French surgeons consider the recommendations are useful in their clinical practice; they primarily apply the guidelines of the CNGOF.
