Surgical Management of Endometriosis
Surgical management of endometriosis should be individualized based on symptoms, fertility desires, and prognosis, ideally involving a multidisciplinary approach.

This chapter reviews surgical management of endometriosis, discussing how endometriosis is more common among infertile populations and emphasizing that not all women with endometriosis require surgical treatment. It argues that if surgery is used, it should be tailored to individual factors such as symptoms, fertility desires, and prognosis for response, and it recommends multidisciplinary care where indicated. A key caveat is that the chapter stresses selection of appropriate candidates and does not assert that surgery is necessary for every patient with endometriosis. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses specifically on principles and tailoring of surgical management for people with endometriosis.
