Vaporization of ovarian endometrioma using plasma energy: histologic findings of a pilot study.

Abstract:

:In ten ovarian endometriomas of diameter exceeding 30 mm, managed by complete vaporization of the inner surface using plasma energy followed by cystectomy, we performed histologic evaluation of the depth of necrosis and the effectiveness of endometrial tissue ablation. We observed that plasma energy allows the ablation of endometrial tissue with minimal damage to the ovarian parenchyma, which suggests that this technique might be of particular interest for women with risk factors of postoperative ovarian reserve impairment, such as recurrent and bilateral endometriomas.
