Radical surgery offers a solution for severe infiltrative endometriosis unresponsive to other treatments. This approach provides high symptom resolution with minimal complications, especially when the gastrointestinal or urinary tracts are involved.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Pelvic Health

Background:

  • Infiltrative endometriosis is a rare condition affecting pelvic organs, causing significant morbidity.
  • Some patients do not respond to hormonal therapy or conservative surgical approaches.

Observation:

  • This review examines 5 case reports of patients undergoing radical surgery for endometriosis.
  • Radical surgery was performed for symptom control in cases resistant to other treatments.

Findings:

  • Radical surgery resulted in minimal patient morbidity.
  • A high rate of symptom resolution was observed following radical surgery.

Implications:

  • Radical surgery should be considered for infiltrative endometriosis, particularly with gastrointestinal or urinary tract invasion.
