Long-term urinary retention after laparoscopic surgery for deep endometriosis

Most such injuries are unpredictable, but in our experience, two of three patients with lesions near the ischial spine developed this complication. Chronic urinary retention after radical endometriosis surgery is rare and often under reported. Although most lesions are unilateral and have a potential for improvement, it is not known how long these effects will last. More data from other centers may help in providing additional information.
