Evolution of Bowel Complaints after Laparoscopic Endometriosis Surgery: A 1497 Women Comparative Study.

Study Objective: To assess to what degree can digestive symptoms improve after endometriosis surgery for different localizations.

Design: A comparative retrospective study employing data prospectively recorded in the North-West Inter-Regional Female Cohort for Patients with Endometriosis (CIRENDO) from June 2009 to November 2018.

Setting: Two referral centers.

Live surgery of colorectal endometriosis broadcasted from a surgeon's routine operating theater is not associated with higher complications rate.

Introduction: Although live surgeries are routinely included in surgical congress programs, they are the subject of an ongoing debate in terms of patient safety and teaching value. The goal of our study was to assess the risk of postoperative complications related to live surgery broadcast from the surgeon's routine theater, in patients managed for deep endometriosis infiltrating the digestive tract.

Material And Methods: We report a retrospective comparative study, enrolling women managed for colorectal endometriosis by a gynecologic surgeon, from September 2013 to March 2020 in two referral centers.
