Superficial ovarian endometriosis can be treated with excision, vaporization, or coagulation, but aggressive methods should be avoided to prevent ovarian damage.

This paper discusses treatment options for ovarian endometriosis, noting that ovarian involvement occurs in 50% to 70% of endometriosis cases and that lesions can differ in appearance from other sites. It describes management of superficial ovarian endometriosis with excision, vaporization, or coagulation, along with intraoperative irrigation and removal of all “charcoal” to aim for complete treatment, while recommending avoiding aggressive laser or electrocoagulation to reduce the risk of ovarian damage. The paper also states that ovarian endometriosis may form cystic endometriomas (endometrioma-like structures), including the context of ovarian cystic disease. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically surgical treatment strategies for ovarian endometriosis and endometriomas.
