Analysis of prospectively collected data between November 2015 and May 2017 in 21 centers with a high volume of endometriosis surgery in France. Each facility could include up to 40 patients undergoing laparoscopy for endometriosis. Data were collected before and two months after surgery.
Results |
361 patients were enrolled in the study. Twenty-seven patients (7.48%) were lost to follow-up at the month 2 visit. Endometriosis stage was I-II in 33.70% of patients and III-IV in 66.30%. Uterosacral ligament resection was the most frequently performed procedure (50.97%) followed by rectal surgery (31.58%), ovarian procedures for endometrioma, procedures for ureters (21.33%) and the bladder (11.91%). Antiadhesion agents were employed in 215/361 (59.56%) patients. The median length of hospital stay after surgery was 2 (IQR 1 – 4) days. Post-operative complications were recorded in 9.34% of patients. Rectovaginal fistulae occurred in 8 patients (2.41%), pelvic abscess in 4 (1.20%) and bladder atony in 3 (0.90%). 17 patients (5.14%) required a second surgical procedure after a median time of 31 days (IQR 9 – 81). Two months after surgery, 95.09% of patients reported being satisfied or very satisfied with the surgery.
