Endometriosis management requires individualized surgical and medical strategies considering disease characteristics, patient age, and reproductive goals, with endoscopic surgery being the current standard without proven technique superiority.

The paper discusses operative management of endometriosis, noting that diagnosis is typically made invasively by laparoscopy with biopsy and that surgical removal of disease and adhesions can be performed in the same anesthesia. It emphasizes that different growth forms and morphological/biochemical characteristics require individualized treatment plans that also consider patient age and reproductive expectations, and that medical therapy can play an adjunctive role after surgery or instead of it. It states that endoscopic surgery is the gold standard, but differences in success and recurrence rates across surgical techniques have not been proven in randomized studies. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on operative therapy strategies, including endoscopic surgical approaches and their evidence limitations.

Zusammenfassung Die Endometriose wird invasiv durch Laparoskopie und bioptische Sicherung diagnostiziert, sodass es nahe liegt, dass sich die chirurgische Therapie in gleicher Narkose anschließt. Unterschiedliche Wachstumsformen der Endometriose einerseits und unterschiedliche mikroskopische und biochemische Charakteristika andererseits erfordern einen individuellen Behandlungsplan, der auch Alter der Patientin und reproduktive Erwartung berücksichtigt. Medikamentöse Therapieoptionen spielen hier additiv zum primär operativen Vorgehen eine Rolle, da oft symptomatische Maßnahmen bei dieser chronischen, rezidivierenden Krankheit ausreichen. Endoskopische Operationstechniken sind heute Standard. Unterschiede in Erfolgs- und Rezidivraten sind bisher für die verschiedenen Techniken nicht durch randomisierte Studien belegt. Abstract Usually endometriosis is diagnosed by invasive laparoscopy. It is reasonable to complete surgical removal of the disease and the adhesions during the same operation. Different types of endometriosis on the one hand and different morphological and biochemical characteristics on the other hand require different individual therapeutic strategies. The age of the patient and reproductive expectations also have to be taken into consideration. Medical treatment options play an additional role after surgery or instead of surgery. Because endometriosis is a chronic disease with a stage-related rate of recurrences, symptomatic treatment may suffice in some cases and may increase the recurrence-free intervals and reduce the number of operations. Endoscopic surgery is the gold standard today, but no differences in efficacy and recurrence rates have been scientifically proven for the different techniques.
