Abstract
Introduction
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility clinical and fertility outcome in patients with endometriosis after laproscopic surgery.
Aims and Objectives
- To study the effect of laparoscopic surgery on pain symptoms of endometriosis
- To study the effect of laparoscopic surgery on the fertility outcome in patients of endometriosis
- To analyze the correlation between laparoscopic findings and histopathology diagnosis
- To find out the recurrence rate of endometriosis after laparoscopic surgery
Materials and Methods
This is a prospective analysis of patients who underwent surgery for endometriosis at tertiary hospital from July 2016 to July 2017. Out of a total of 108 cases, patients with open surgery, TVS guided aspiration of cyst and those without visual evidence of endometriosis at diagnostic laparoscopy were excluded. All the patients who had undergone laparoscopic surgery with documented evidence of endometriosis intra-operatively were included in this study. A total of 100 patients met the study criteria.
Data was collected during surgery and from in-patient records and discharge records of the patients. Follow up of the patient was taken in out patient department during their postoperative visit to the hospital or by contacting them via telephone.
