Traitement chirurgical des endométriomes. Modalités et résultats en termes de douleur, fertilité et récidive des techniques chirurgicales et de ses alternatives. RPC Endométriose CNGOF-HAS

Surgical management of ovarian endometrioma is most often part of a global approach of endometriosis pathology. Isolated endometrioma are rare. Laparoscopic cystectomy is the gold standard for surgical management of endometrioma. Nevertheless, this technique impacts the ovarian function. The hemostasis of the ovarian cyst bed should be performed to conserve the ovarian stroma. Ultrasonography-guided cyst aspiration, laparoscopic drainage and simple bipolar coagulation are not recommended as first line of treatment. Based on the actual literature, we cannot state the place of laser-vaporization and plasma-energy ablation in surgical management. Ethanol sclerotherapy could be an alternative to treat recurrent endometrioma. Uncompleted surgical removal of endometriosis lesions increases the recurrence rate. Endometriosis management should take into account the research and treatment of all the pelvic lesion, especially before surgical management of endometrioma. In this context, the evaluation of ovarian reserve could be useful before surgery.
