Endometriosis is defined as endometrial tissue outside the uterus, and its diagnosis still relies on history, laparoscopy, biopsy, and histology, followed by therapy.

The paper defines endometriosis as implantation of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity and myometrium, and it reviews diagnostic and therapeutic management rather than presenting new experimental data. It states that there have been no major new diagnostic concepts in recent years and maintains a stepwise approach of anamnesis with symptomatology, followed by laparoscopy, biopsy, histology, and then therapy. A limitation explicitly acknowledged by its framing is the lack of updated diagnostic innovations, implying continued reliance on the established algorithm. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on defining the condition and outlining the contemporary diagnostic and therapeutic pathway.

Zusammenfassung Die Endometriose wird definiert als Absiede-lung von Endometriumdrüsen und -stroma außerhalb des Cavum uteri und des Myometriums. Zur Diagnose haben sich in den letzten Jahren keine wesentlichen neuen Gesichtspunkte ergeben, so dass unverändert das Vorgehen gilt: Anamnese mit Symptomatologie ⇒ Laparoskopie ⇒ Biopsie ⇒ Histologie ⇒ Therapie.
