Long Term Postoperative Recurrence Rates and Fertility Outcomes after Endometrioma CO-Laser Vaporization: A 5 years Follow-up Experience.

Study Objective: Although cystectomy remains the gold standard for the surgical treatments of endometriomas, concerns about the negative effect on ovarian reserve are rising. Laser-CO vaporization of endometriomas has shown encouraging data on ovarian reserve preservation, postoperative pregnancy rates, and recurrence. The aim of this study was to assess postoperative recurrence rate and pregnancy rate in patients with endometriomas managed by CO fiber laser vaporization after at least 5 years following surgery.

Endometriosis and Adenomyosis: Modern Concepts of Their Clinical Outcomes, Treatment, and Management.

Endometriosis and adenomyosis are complex gynecological conditions characterized by diverse clinical presentations, including superficial peritoneal endometriosis (SPE), ovarian endometrioma (OMA), and deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). The hallmark features of these pathologies involve the manifestation of pain symptoms and infertility, and approximately 30% of patients are asymptomatic. Despite ongoing research, definitive treatments for these conditions remain elusive, and clinical management primarily revolves around medical or surgical interventions.

Reproductive outcomes after vaginal repair of isthmocele: A preliminary study and systematic review of the literature.

Objective: Although vaginal repair of isthmocele is an effective and safe surgical option, data on reproductive and obstetrical outcomes are lacking. The aim of this study is to evaluate reproductive outcomes of women undergone vaginal repair of isthmocele. We also systematically reviewed the existent literature to offer a general view of available data.

CO2 fiber laser vaporization for endometrioma treatment results in preserved ovarian responsiveness and improved embryo quality in infertile women undergoing ART.

Background: Infertile women carrying ovarian endometriomas can be managed either with surgery or by in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The aim of this study was to compare ovarian responsiveness to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in assisted reproduction techniques (ART) in infertile women carrying small intact endometriomas and those managed by endometrioma cystectomy or CO2 fiber laser ablation.

Methods: Retrospective case-control study of prospectively collected data including women underwent ART for endometriosis-related infertility.

Mini-invasive transvaginal repair of isthmocele: a video case report.

Objectives: To describe our technique for transvaginal treatment of isthmocele.

Design: Surgical video article. Local Institutional Review Board approval for the video reproduction was obtained.
