Abstract:
19
Objective: It remains controversial as to which conservative surgery for
20
endometriotic cysts is more beneficial for preserving ovarian reserve. We
21
have initiated a study with the objective of evaluating how endometriotic
22
cystectomy and vaporization affect ovarian reserve following conservative
23
surgery.
24
Design: Prospective study.
25
Design classification: II-1
26
Setting: Hokusetsu General Hospital
27
Patients: Ninety-nine women who underwent conservative surgery for
28
endometriotic cysts from June 2011 to July 2013 in Hokusetsu General
29
Hospital.
30
Interventions: Vaporization with bipolar current was adopted for the
31
nulligravid women and a cystectomy was carried out on those who already had
32
a child. In endometriotic cyst, 28 women undertook a bilateral cystectomy
33
(BC), 15 undertook bilateral vaporization (BV), 40 undertook a unilateral
34
cystectomy (UC), and 16 undertook unilateral vaporization (UV). In all cases,
35
preoperatively and postoperatively, serum AMH and FSH levels at the early
36
proliferative phase were assayed and the change in their levels was evaluated

Results: In the BC group, the postoperative FSH level (19.3±21.8 IU/ml) was

statistically higher than the preoperative level (9.0±6.2 IU/ml) (p
