Surgical treatment of ovarian endometriomas using intraoperative ultrasound
Intraoperative laparoscopic ultrasound imaging in ovarian endometrioma surgery reduced revision time, complications, and relapse rates while ensuring optimal intervention and reproductive function.

The study prospectively and retrospectively analyzed surgical outcomes in 138 patients with ovarian endometriomas, comparing 69 who received pre- and post-operative standard ultrasound plus intraoperative laparoscopic transvaginal and laparoscopic ultrasound with 69 retrospective controls who underwent laparoscopic ultrasound without intraoperative ultrasound. The authors report that intraoperative ultrasound reduced the time spent on surgical revision, lowered intra- and postoperative complication rates, and decreased postoperative recurrence frequency. They also state that intraoperative ultrasound had high diagnostic accuracy (up to 99.2%) and helped determine an optimal surgical volume and technique, with the aim of better preserving reproductive function. The paper relates directly to endometriosis: it specifically evaluates intraoperative ultrasound to improve surgical treatment outcomes for ovarian endometriomas.
