Indeed, the main concern in endometriosis is the choice of treatment in cases of infertility problems: medical or surgical. This concern could hypothetically be avoided if endometriosis were considered as a spontaneously regressive phenomenon. The present paper also discusses the risk of recurrence and the results of in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer in cases of ovarian endometriosis. Whatever type of surgery is performed, the results of in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer are not impaired, especially if damage to the ovarian cortex is avoided. Further studies are required to determine if oocytes from endometriosis patients are altered and could be responsible for the development of lower quality embryos.\nDisciplines :\nReproductive medicine (gynecology, andrology, obstetrics)\nNisolle, Michelle ; Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Liège - CHU > Gynécologie-Obstétrique CHR\nLanguage :\nEnglish\nTitle :\nOvarian endometriosis and peritoneal endometriosis: are they different entities from a fertility perspective?\nPublication date :\nJune 2002\nJournal title :\nCurrent Opinion in Obstetrics and Gynecology\nISSN :\n1040-872X\neISSN :\n1473-656X\nPublisher :\nLippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, United States - Pennsylvania\nVolume :\n14\nIssue :\n3\nPages :\n283-288\nPeer reviewed :\nPeer Reviewed verified by ORBi\nAvailable on ORBi :\nsince 16 November 2011\nScopus citations®\n26\nScopus citations®\nwithout self-citations\nwithout self-citations\n26\nOpenCitations\n24\nOpenAlex citations\n24\n- Von Rokitansky C.
