NCT07519213
This retrospective cohort study evaluates the association between postoperative hormonal treatment and recurrence of ovarian endometriosis in women undergoing surgery for ovarian endometrioma. The study includes patients treated at a single center who initiated one postoperative hormonal regimen after surgery. The main objective is to compare the risk of recurrence among women receiving combined oral contraceptives, gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists, dienogest, or dydrogesterone. Recurrence is assessed during follow-up based on postoperative clinical and ultrasound findings. The results may help clarify the comparative effectiveness of commonly used postoperative hormonal strategies for reducing recurrence after surgery for ovarian endometrioma.
NCT06377553
This study aims to determine if PET/MRI can detect endometriosis and potentially improve upon currently available non-invasive diagnostic capabilities. Specifically, the authors will investigate the ability of PET/MRI to detect and quantify endometriosis, as well as differentiate among subcategories such as inflammatory peritoneal lesions, fibrotic deep infiltrating endometriosis lesions (DIE), and ovarian endometriomas. The authors will compare \[68Ga\]CBP8 or \[18F\]-FAPI-74 PET/MRI imaging versus the current gold standard diagnostic methods, including laparoscopic surgery, clinical follow-up, and follow-up imaging.
NCT04704115
Endometrioma's prevalence is between 23 and 55%. It causes pelvic pain, decrease fertility and ovarian reserve. Currently, there's no recommendation about large endometrioma's treatment and there's no information on the best treatment to limit recurrences, preserve fertility and ovarian reserve. In Lille university hospital, simple laparoscopic drainage associated with hormonal therapy is practiced to reduce the risk of cystectomy. This protocol will be evaluated with an observational and prospective study, including women of childbearing age having endometrioma measuring 6 cm or above. The aim of this study is to assess if cyst drainage associated with GnRH agonist, could decrease endometrioma recurrences, deleterious effect on ovarian reserve and evaluate impact on anti-mullerian hormone
NCT07215130
This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and tissue selectivity of a novel surgical technology, the Cavitron Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator (CUSA) Clarity, in the management of ovarian endometriomas. Ovarian endometriomas are cysts caused by endometriosis that can damage ovarian reserve when treated by conventional surgery. In this study, ovarian cyst wall specimens are examined ex vivo using different Tissue Select settings of the CUSA device. Histopathological analyses are performed to determine whether endometriotic epithelium can be selectively removed while preserving normal ovarian tissue. The findings may contribute to developing fertility-preserving surgical approaches for women with endometriomas.
NCT04151433
To study which surgical technique offers better results in treating endometriomas in terms of ovarian reserve preservation. The 2 conservatives techniques used are: 1. The combined technique 2. CO2 laser vaporization only Ovarian reserve will be assessed by consecutive measurements of AMH serum levels before and after surgery.
NCT05962775
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to assess the impact of ethanol sclerotherapy on ART cycle outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does ethanol sclerotherapy before ART cycle has any impact on cumulative live birth rate in patients with endometrioma? 2. Does ethanol sclerotherapy improve chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, complications during oocyte retrieval, response to ovarian stimulation (number of mature oocytes retrieved), and pregnancy loss rates? Infertile patients with endometrioma between 4-10 cm who are scheduled for ART within 2 cycles will be randomized to ethanol sclerotherapy or no intervention.
NCT05801523
The aim of this prospective randomized study is to compare laparoscopic sclerotherapy to cystectomy in following: AMH dynamics, endometrioma recurrence, complications, pregnancy rate, assisted reproduction methods success rate, live birth rate

The main question it aims to answer is: • Is two-session CDS with 96% ethanol safe and effective for treating endometrioma? Participants will: * Receive the first session CDS for endometrioma * Carry the catheter overnight and be monitored in the patient ward * Receive the second session CDS the next day
NCT05323539
The aim of our study is to evaluate whether there is a statistical difference between thyroid gland volume in patients with pathological diagnosis of endometriosis or endometrioma and in patients who underwent surgery for other gynecological reasons, and to reveal the presence of concomitant thyroid disease in these cases.
NCT05637073
Investigators aimed at comparing the impact on ovarian reserve of three usual-care management options of endometrioma, laparoscopic cystectomy (LC), hormonal treatment with daily dienogest (HT), or mere ultrasound control (UC). Ovarian reserve will be measured by the effect on the circulating levels of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH). Secondary objectives will be effect on pelvic pain, other symptoms, sexual function, quality of life, progression in size of the endometrioma, impact on work productivity and activity impairment, and satisfaction with treatment. Participants will be followed by up to one year.

NCT01942122
This is a 3-arm, prospective, randomized, double-blind, and controlled study of DLBS1442 for the treatment of pain in patients suspected endometriosis. It is hypothesized that the reduction of the composite-pain intensity (as measured by VAS) from baseline to the end of study (week 8th) resulting from administration of DLBS1442, regardless of the dosage regimen, is significantly greater than that of Control. In addition, the administration of DLBS1442 at higher dose also results in significantly greater reduction than that of DLBS1442 at lower dose and of Control.
NCT03788720
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic disease, characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrial-like tissue outside the uterine cavity. According to the most updated guidelines of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE), infertile women with endometriomas smaller than 3 cm should be addressed directly to Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART); conversely, for infertile women with endometriomas larger than 3 cm, enucleation of ovarian endometriomas could be considered in order to improve reproductive outcomes (both spontaneous and ART pregnancy rate). To date, literature data do not allow to draw a firm conclusion about the best strategy to reduce ovarian damage during enucleation of ovarian endometriomas: in particular, investigators still lack robust evidence in order to choose between suturing the ovary or not after the enucleation. In this scenario, the aim of our the study will be to compare functional outcomes of the ovary in a group of women undergoing suturing of the ovarian cortex after laparoscopic enucleation of endometriomas (cases) and a group of women undergoing laparoscopic enucleation of endometriomas without subsequent suture of the ovarian cortex.
NCT03717870
Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent chronic disease, characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue, glands and stroma outside the uterine cavity. Although endometriosis is classified in four stage (minimal, mild, moderate, severe), from the clinical point of view it is possible to subdivide among peritoneal superficial lesions, ovarian endometriomas and Deep Infiltrating Endometriosis (DIE). According to the European Society for Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) Guideline on the management of women with endometriosis, it is recommended to clinicians that in infertile women with endometrioma larger than 3 cm, cystectomy should be considered prior to Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART) to improve endometriosis-associated pain or the accessibility of follicles. They further recommend that clinicians counsel women with endometrioma regarding the risks of reduced ovarian function after surgery, the possible loss of the ovary, and consider that the decision to proceed with surgery should be taken carefully if the woman has had previous ovarian surgery. In addition, this Guideline suggests that clinicians can prescribe prolonged (3-6 months) pituitary downregulation with Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone-agonists (GnRH-a) prior to ART, in order to increase live birth rate by four-fold. Despite these recommendations, to date there is not robust evidence to choose between the two strategies prior to ART in order to improve reproductive outcomes. For this reason, the aim of the current study will be to compare reproductive outcomes in infertile women affected by ovarian endometrioma, undergoing laparoscopic enucleation or prolonged pituitary downregulation with GnRH-a, prior to ART.
NCT04452123
Ovarian endometriosis (endometrioma) can be a cause of subfertility. According to European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) guidelines, surgery for endometrioma is recommended when an endometrioma is more than 3 cm in diameter because this management is associated with better spontaneous conception rates. Nevertheless, surgery can also be potentially associated with a risk of destruction of functional ovarian tissue and reduction in ovarian reserve. Anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) is a member of the Transforming Growth Factor beta family and is expressed by the small (\<8 mm) pre-antral and early antral follicles. The AMH level reflects the size of the primordial follicle pool, and may be the best biochemical marker of ovarian function across an array of clinical situations Its level in serum is almost stable between 20 and 35 years of the woman´s life, unless using hormonal contraception and / or they suffer with Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). The level of AMH is also a useful indicator for the prediction chances of success of spontaneous or assisted conceptions. However, there paucity of data regarding changes in serum levels of AMH following surgery for endometrioma. An alternative way for estimating ovarian reserve is quantifying ovarian mass with using standard 3D transvaginal ultrasound calculation (OVM) and assessment of antral follicular count. The gold standard of endometrioma surgery is laparoscopic excision with suture or gentle coagulation of the rest of ovary or by the use of laparoscopic treatment with argon plasma energy.

Endometriosis is a common disease with an incidence rate of 15% in women of childbearing age, and is a chronic disease that significantly affects women's quality of life by causing two problems: pain and infertility. The usual treatment for ovarian endometrioma is surgery, and the most common surgical method is laparoscopy, however, Surgery has the disadvantage of deteriorating ovarian function. Previous studies reported that local injection of vasopressin may minimize damage to the ovarian tissue during the surgical procedure. Currently, the best way to evaluate ovarian function is to measure AMH (anti-mullerian hormone). However, previous studies has not evaluated ovarian function by AMH. Aim of this study is to compare the anti-mullarian hormone (AMH) change in vasopressin-administered patients after unilateral endometrioma surgery. In this study, antimullerian hormone (AMH) will be used as an indicator of ovarian function evaluation, and will be evaluated before surgery, 6 and 12 months after surgery. Subjects were allocated randomly with stratification of AMH level 3.0mg / ml.
