Abstract

The authors present a clinical study of 62 infertile patients with endometriotic lesions diagnosed in all cases by laparoscopy. The large variety of lesions and the high incidence in this series of tumorous or tubal lesions, led in 39 cases to a combination of medical treatment with danazol with surgical intervention, i.e. excision or conservative surgery. The overall pregnancy rate was 46.7%, which proves the high efficacy of danazol in this situation.
