“…The absence of intraoperative complications and low rate of postoperative complications in this series, however, is consistent with reported complication rates in the literature for laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for malignancy [26,[29][30]. This case series further supports the use of extirpative surgical treatment for patients with severe endometriosis causing significant lifestyle-limiting pelvic pain that is resistant to medical and conservative surgical treatments.…”

“…The patient was administed with GnRH-a therapy. Although there is controversy regarding the value of GnRH-a after surgical therapy [10,11] we must appreciate that our patient had not suffered from the classical form of endometriosis, so the decision to administer GnRH-a was based on the balance of the lack of evidence on thoracic endometriosis treatment and it is known that even after surgical treatment the incidence of persisent pelvic pain after hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is 10% [12].…”

“…Čeprav naj bi omenjeni poseg zmanjšal bolečine zaradi GIE in tveganje za črevesne zaplete, pa nedvomno zaradi simptomov prezgodnje menopavze ne izboljšuje kakovosti življenja ter ne prepreči vztrajanja simptomatske bolezni v pomenopavzi (26,27). Obenem je pogostost zapletov pri histerektomiji podobna pogostosti pri resekciji črevesa, in sicer 11,1 % pri laparoskopski histerektomiji in 6,2 % pri abdominalni (28).…”

Background: Te purpose of the study was to determine the quality of life in patients with bowel endometriosis before and afer laparoscopic bowel resection.Material and methods: In the retrospective study we included 91 patients who underwent laparoscopic resection of the bowel aﬀected by endometriosis at the Unit for Reproduction and the Unit for Gynecology, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Ljubljana, in the period from 2002 to 2011. Te study was retrospective. Te patients were sent a questionnaire regarding the symptoms before surgery and the eﬀect of surgery on bowel symptoms, painful menstruation, painful sexual intercourse, chronic pelvic pain and quality of life before and afer surgery; 76 (83.5 %) patients replied to the questionnaire.Results: Before surgery, 72 (94.7 %) patients reported painful menstruation. Improvement or complete relief afer surgery was registered in 57 (79.1 %). Out of 60 (78.9 %) patients who had painful sexual intercourse before surgery, 49 (81.7 %) reported improvement or complete relief afer surgery. Bowel symptoms, present in 52 (68.4 %) patients before surgery, improved or completely disappeared in 48 (92.4 %) afer surgery. Chronic pelvic pain, present in 53 (69.7 %) before surgery, decreased or did not exist any more in 45 patients (86.5 %). Te quality of life before surgery was very poor in 32 patients (42.1 %), and poor in 21 patients (27.8 %). Afer the operation, the quality of life was reported as improved in 22 (28.9 %) and signifcantly improved in 42 (55.3 %).Conclusions: Laparoscopic bowel resection, indicated in extensive symptomatic endometriosis, signifcantly improves the patients’ quality of life.
