Correction: Clinical presentation of perineal endometriosis and prognostic nomogram after surgical resection

This document is a correction to Zhu et al.’s original BMC Women’s Health study on the clinical presentation of perineal endometriosis and a prognostic nomogram after surgical resection. The correction adds text to reference 32 in the original article, clarifying that in their study hormonal medication did not show a statistically significant association with recurrence risk, although pain in most recurrent cases improved after timely hormonal intervention; it also cites evidence that perineal endometriosis can regress after pregnancy and that GnRH-a inhibits lesions in a rat model but regrowth occurs after hormone cessation. The authors explicitly note that postoperative hormonal suppression may extend the disease-free interval without completely preventing recurrence. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it is specifically a correction related to perineal endometriosis clinical presentation and prognostic nomogram after surgical resection.
