The pathology called “endometriosis is defined as presence of endometrial tissue (gland and stroma) outside the uterus”. It is the leading cause of disability in women of reproductive age, and is also said to impair the quality of life [1,2]. Endometriosis is estimated to affect 10% women in the reproductive age group [3]. Ovarian endometriosis is one of the most frequent manifestation of the disease, and previous studies indicate that 55% of women with ovarian endometriosis have endometriomas [4]. European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) guidelines state that surgical treatment would be warranted for ovarian endometriomas >3 cm. Laparoscopic stripping of the cyst wall is considered as the “Gold Standard” treatment of endometrioma as that procedure has been associated with reduced relapse rate, diminished signs and symptoms, improved intimate relations and also, improves fertility by enhancing chances of spontaneous conception.
