Endometriosis. Infertility. Surgical view.

Abstract

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease defined as the presence of endometrium-like tissue outside the uterus (Kennedy, et al., 2005). Establishment and growth of such endometriotic tissue is estrogen-dependent (Kitawaki, et al., 2002), thus it is mostly found in women of reproductive age although the clinical consequences of endometriosis and its management can last well into post- menopause. The aim of the study. To study modern clinical recommendations and treatment approaches.
