Endometriosis is the cause of pelvic pain (dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia) and infertility in more than 35% of women of reproductive age.
In 1997, we demonstrated that three entities must be clearly distinguished:
- Peritoneal endometriosis
- Ovarian endometriomas (chocolate cysts)
- Retroperitoneal endometriosis or adenomyosis.
In this chapter, we focus on the diagnosis and management of peritoneal endometriosis.
