One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

Three cases of asymptomatic pelvic endometriosis during pregnancy were reported. All cases denied abnormal vaginal bleeding, dyspareunia or dysmenorrhea; but only one case was noted to have a problem of infertility. Conservative operations were performed at the second trimester and during cesarean section with an uneventful postoperative course. Cyclic menses have been resumed.
