La nouvelle classification de l’endométriose révisée selon #Enzian : finalement une nomenclature complète et efficace ?
The SEF group proposes an updated #Enzian classification for endometriosis to describe superficial, ovarian, and tubal lesions alongside deep infiltrating ones.

This paper discusses the need for a comprehensive endometriosis classification that can capture both the presence and extent of superficial and deep infiltrating lesions, and it proposes a revised system based on #Enzian by the SEF German-speaking research foundation. The authors extend the older ENZIAN classification, which primarily described deep infiltrating endometriosis, by adding a macroscopic description of superficial peritoneal lesions as well as ovarian and tubal involvement, aiming to make the nomenclature more complete and reflective of surgical findings and fertility-relevant anatomy. A stated limitation is that, up to now, a complete classification describing both lesion depth categories at the same time has been lacking, motivating this work as a conceptual/nomenclature revision rather than presenting new clinical outcome data. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it revises the #Enzian classification to provide a more complete system including superficial and deep lesion descriptors.
