Editorial Expression of Concern: Ovarian stripping versus cystectomy: recurrence of endometriosis and pregnancy rate
An editorial expresses concern regarding potential data inaccuracies, specifically p values in Table 1, and advises readers to interpret the original article's findings cautiously due to unavailable raw data.

This editorial expression of concern addresses the article “Ovarian stripping versus cystectomy: recurrence of endometriosis and pregnancy rate,” which compared these surgical approaches in relation to endometriosis recurrence and pregnancy outcomes. After publication, concerns were raised about the p values reported in Table 1, and the authors were unable to provide the raw data because of the time elapsed since publication; readers are therefore advised to interpret the article’s results and conclusions cautiously, and the authors’ agreement with the expression of concern was not stated. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — the expression of concern specifically concerns reported recurrence and pregnancy findings after ovarian stripping versus cystectomy.
