Hallazgos laparoscópicos en pacientes sintomáticas portadoras de endometriosis
This study analyzed laparoscopic findings in 394 endometriosis patients, finding associations between pelvic pain and lesions in the uterus and uterosacral ligaments, but no statistical link between infertility and lesion location or clinical manifestations and disease stage.

The study retrospectively analyzed 1,616 gynecologic laparoscopic surgeries performed between 2005 and 2009 at a Peruvian hospital, focusing on 394 women with pelvic endometriosis to correlate clinical characteristics with operative findings. The most frequent symptoms/anomalies were infertility (42.9%) and pelvic pain (14.3%), and lesions were predominantly in early stages (stage I 46%, stage II 26%); the uterus (76.4%), uterosacral ligaments (42.9%), and Douglas pouch (42.1%) were most commonly affected, with some extragenital involvement (e.g., bladder wall 15%, rectosigmoid 4.3%). The authors found no statistically significant association between infertility or clinical staging and lesion location (infertility vs location not significant; staging and clinical manifestations no correlation), but pelvic pain was associated with lesions in the left uterine tube and uterosacral ligaments. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it correlates laparoscopic lesion locations and stages with symptoms, especially chronic pelvic pain, in surgically treated pelvic endometriosis patients.
