- The study compares the #Enzian classification and the revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine (rASRM) stages in assessing the extent of endometriosis in women undergoing radical surgery for deep endometriosis.
- Findings show that while the severity of endometriotic lesions and adhesions generally increases with higher rASRM stages, deep endometriosis can also occur in early stages, leading to potential underestimation of disease severity.
- The research involved 735 women and indicates that many with rASRM stage 1 had significant deep endometriosis, highlighting the need for better classification methods.
