Surgical Outcomes after Colorectal Surgery for Endometriosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
2021, Journal of Minimally Invasive GynecologyCitation Excerpt :For the meta-analysis, 17 studies on rectovaginal fistula, 10 on anastomotic leakage, 5 on anastomotic stenosis, and 9 on voiding dysfunction <30 days were included. Twenty-four studies were prospective [9,18–40], 1 was a randomized controlled trial [41], and 35 were retrospective [10,42–75]. The 60 studies included in the review enrolled a total of 17 495 patients: 9673 (55.3%) underwent rectal shaving, 1510 (8.6%) disc excision, and 6312 (36.1%) segmental resection.
Recurrence after Surgery for Colorectal Endometriosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
2020, Journal of Minimally Invasive GynecologyCitation Excerpt :Ten of the remaining 51 articles were ineligible for review: three reported a surgical technique that was unclear and 7 reported an overall recurrence rate without specifying the colorectal technique. Among the 41 articles included in the review (Table 1) [11,20–59], 37 were excluded from the meta-analysis according to the inclusion criteria: eleven were excluded because of a follow-up period <12 months and 26 on the basis of the definition of recurrence (either nonspecified or without follow-up surgery with histologic proof of recurrence). In total, 41 studies were retained for the systemic review [11,20–59], 4 of which were included (Table 2) [21,25,30,47] in the meta-analysis (Fig. 1).
Rare case of perplexing ovarian endometriosis
2010, Fertility and SterilityLetrozole and norethisterone acetate in colorectal endometriosis
2010, European Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive BiologyCitation Excerpt :Medical therapies have been shown to be safe, well tolerated and effective in long-term treatment of pain symptoms caused by deep pelvic endometriosis [11]. Although some authors reported a temporary improvement in pain and intestinal complaints during treatment with gonadotropin releasing hormone analogues [12,13], up to now few studies have investigated the effects of hormonal therapies on the symptoms caused by bowel endometriosis [1,14,15]. Over the last 10 years, several case reports and pilot studies proposed the use of aromatase inhibitors in the treatment of pain symptoms caused by pelvic endometriosis [16]; however, no study examined the effects of these agents in treating intestinal symptoms of women with colorectal endometriosis.
