– HUGHESTON (1957)/ BROSENS (1994)

The OE have their origin in superficial peritoneal implants of 

ovarian fossas. An accumulation of cyclic micro‐

haemorrhages is responsible for the accumulation of blood

and debris with progressive invagination al inside the ovary.

– NISOLLE ET DONNEZ (1996)

OE are due to an invagination of the mesothelium to the 

surface of the ovaries followed by coeliomicmetaplasia of 

the invaginated tissue. This explains the OE having no 

contact with the fossa and OE multilocular formation

ENDOMETRIOMA And FERTILITY:CurrentTrends

• Negative impact of endometriosis on fertility: if> 2‐3 cm

– Shubert B et al, Human reprod, 2005:  histological evaluation of ovarian cortex surrounding the EO shows a 

direct negative effect of the cyst on the on the follicular adjacent capital

– Benaglia et al 2009: The physiologicalmechanisms leading to ovulation are deranged in ovaries withOE.

• Improving spontaneous conception rates after surgery: VERCELLINI et al, 2009

But cystectomy can also be deleterious to ovarian reserve

• Cystectomy negative effect on fertility:

– Alteration of ovarian Reserve (decrease in l’AMH level, poor response to COH)

– Especially if second surgeries, multiple or large endometriomas.

• L’endométriose peut être responsable d’une hypofertilité, la chirurgie première est 

possible avec un délai de 6 à 12 mois derrière pour obtenir une grossesse spontanée

– La ponction écho‐guidée n’est pas le traitement de première intention

– Le drainage percoelioscopique n’est pas recommandé car il conduit à une récidive immédiate

– KIP coelio si > 3cm (infertilité, douleur ou masse annexielle)

– Traitement médical en préopératoire non recommandé.

• Les endométriomes n’ont pas d’impact sur les résultats de l’AMP

– . Ne pas interrompre une FIV si découverte d’un EO en cours de traitement

– Pour les EO < 6cm, ni le traitement chirurgical, ni la ponction des EO ne sont recommandés avant la FIV.

2006

• Laparoscopic cystectomy for OE greater than 4 cm improved fertility compared to cyst drainage 

and coagulation which is associated with a high risk of recurrence.

• A possible adverse consequence is the loss of viable ovarian cortex.

• After the first infertility operation, additional surgery has only rarely increased fecundability, and 

these patients may be better servec by usingART.

• Ovarian endometrioma and IVF

– For women who are found to have an asymptomaticOE ans who are planning to undergo IVF there is

insufficient evidence to suggest that removal of the endometrioma will improve IVF success rate.

– But if the OE is large > 4cm, surgery should be considered to confirm the diagnosis histollogically, to improve

access to follicle duringOCR, and possibly to improve ovarian response.

– The patient should bemade aware that extensive ovarian surgery could compromise ovarian function and 

diminish the response to ovarian stimulation.

Sociétés Savantes (2)….

2012

• Surgery for infertility and pain.

– Cyctectomy instead of drainage and coagulation or laser vaporization: less pain (Hart 2011), less

recurrence rate (Carmona et al 2011) In women withOE receiving surgery for infertility or pain, 

– Excision of the endometrioma capsule increases the spontaneous post operative pregnancy rate when

compared with drainage and electrocoagulation of the OE wall

– The GDG recommand that clinicians counselled women withOE regarding the risks of reduced ovarian

function after surgery and the possible loss of the ovary.

– THE DECISION TO PROCEED SURGERY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED CAREFULLY IF THE WOMAN HAS 

HAD PREVIOUS SURGERY.

• Endometrioma and ART

– Several studies have evaluated the usefullness of cystectomy prior to ART to improve reproductive 

outcome in women withOE, but there is limited consistency in the interpretation of the results.

OE TREATMENTS: Goals and Methods

• GOALS OF ENDOMETRIOMA TREATMENT– To permit a spontaneous pregnancy if there is no others causes of infertility

– To remove the internal layer of the cyst

– As much as possible to limit the risk of recurrence

– Without destroying the surounding tissue and mainly the oocytes 

– Without impairing the ovarian vascularization

– Withoutmissing an hypothetical cancer 

• AVAILABLE TREATMENT

– Medical treatment : not for infertility

– Cystectomy: still the gold standard

– Destruction of the internal layer of the cyst

• Laser or plasma jet vaporization

• Sclerotherapy

Endometrioma: The optimal strategy

Surgery:  EXCISIONAL or ABLATIVE

‐To Remove endometrioma, check the pelvis (tube adhesion), and to dicrease recurrence rate. (Hart 2011)

‐To get a specimen

‐To expect a natural pregnancy  : 40 % deliveries (Hart 2011)

‐Knowledge of the surgeons (Matzuzaki 2009)

No Surgery 

‐Lowovarian reserve : AFC and AMH (Somigliani 2012)

‐Multiple endometriomas (busacca 2009: IOP x2,4)

‐Recurrence of endometrioma (Streuli 2012, ferrero 2015)

‐Another pemanent indication of IVF (ASRM, ESHRE)

PLACE OF ETHANOL SCLEROTHERAPY

• What is proven 

– No impact of endometrioma on IVF results (Benaglia 2013)

– No benefits to remove the endometrioma before Ivf

• But 

– Pains 

– Less matures oocytes obtained (Yazbeck 2006, Busacca 2009)

– Difficulty for ovum pick‐up

– Risk of ovarian abscess  (Padila 1997, Younis 1993)

OE and IVF: The optimal strategy

PLACE OF ETHANOLSCLEROTHERAPY

IVF must be the option When endometrioma < 3 cm 

‐ Direct IVF withoutOE treatment

When endometrioma > 3 cm  or multiple or recurrence

‐ Ultralong protocole + sclerotherapy

ETHANOL SCLEROTHERAPY

• ADVANTAGES:

– Simple, fast

– Cheep

– Efficient on pain 

– Recurrence rate  <15 % 

– Can be repeated

– No histological sample

– No evidence of alteration

of the ovarian reserve

History

• Initial development in pulmonary

tuberculosis and in the treatment of

malignant pleural oncology. Then in

various types of cysts (thyroid, heart,

liver, kidney ..)

• The simple echo‐guided aspiration has

been promoted first, but the high rate of

recurrence restricted its application

(Giorlandino 1993, Chan 2003) and those

of other sclerotic agents (Chang 1997)

• It was in Japan that has developed in the

ethanol sclerotherapy of endometriomas,

which led to a clear reduction of the

recurrence rate (Okagaki et al, 1999,

Noma and Yoshida 2001, Koide and Al

2002)

• Investigate and test the efficacityof Ethanol sclerotherapy for recurrent endometrioma beforeCOH in infertile patients.

– Cases: n=31 patients with positive histological diagnosis at previoussurgery, recurrent OE between 2 and 6 cm.

– Controls n=26, patients with an history of moderate to severeendometriosis including one conventional laparoscopiccystectomy for recurrent OE.

Same results in term ofLivebirth rate per cycle in the 3 groups

But place for ESTIf huge endometriomaAnd place to abstentionIf small endometrioma

How we do?

• In the AMP unit, we offer ethanol sclerotherapy for women requiringART when:

– Previous surgery of endometriosis and recurrence of OE > 3cm

– Bilateral endometrioma

– Huge endometrioma if ART is indicated for another indication (MRI necessary)

– In extensive stage IV endometriosis with endometriomawhen infertility is the main symptom (no 

or moderate pain)

– Abstention is offered if small recurrent endometrioma.

• Sclerotherapy was done during ultra long GNRH agonist suppression protocol

– Just before the second injection

– US control of cysts was done before the controlled ovarian stimulation

COMPLICATIONS after EST (1)

• PELVIC ABCESS (Younis 1997, J Assist Reprod

genetic)

– Preventionwith strict aspesie and the use of sterile

equipment.

– UnsystematicAntibiotic prophylaxis unsystematic

(OH = bacteriostatic) unless history of pelvic

infection

• ADHERENCES POST EST

– OKAGAKI R et al 1999, Human Reprod Oxf England; 

Severe and unusual discoveries adhesions around the 

ovaries during laparoscopy post EST (peritoneal

diffusion of ethanol?)

– MUZZI et al 2002: Same adhesions after simple EO 

punctures

COMPLICATIONS after EST (2)

• DO NOT KNOW A MALIGNANT HISTOLOGY 

– 0.7% estimated risk of malignant disease in women with endometriosis of reproductive age (Nishida et al 2000)

– Endometriosis disease often known before EST:  Histology on previous surgery

– Ultrasound imaging or MRI has excellent sensitivity specificity for benin or malignant ovarian tumor.

• PERFORATIONS INTESTINALES, ALCOOLISATION SYSTEMIQUE

– Perforations: non relevée après EST d’endometriome dans la littérature. Précautions d’injection de l’ethanol.

– Alcoolisation systemique (Tei et al 1996, Masui)

• Risque faible, lié a une diffusion sanguine de l’ethanol. Mais précaution systématique, surveillance 6h post ponction et test

AUTRES DONNEES SUR la SCLEROTHERAPIE

• HSIEH and al, fertil steril 2009: Ethanol left in situ

– Group 1: n=78: 10 minutes sclerotherapy

– Group 2: n=30 Ethanol left in situ

– SameAFC and pain score in two groups, less recurrence in group 2 (13,3% vs 32,1%, p<0.005)

• ZHANG and al, AJOG 2014: sclerotherapy of hydrosalpinx prior IVF

– US sclerotherapy on womenwith hydrosalpinx could improve the  outcomes of IVF by 

improving the blood flow of uterine arcuate artery. No adverse effect on perinatal outcomes

was seen

EST and Fertility PRESERVATION

• EST can offer a preservation of mature oocyte by vitrification for patient with severe

endometriosis, before of potentiel important surgery with risk for their ovarian reserve.

• EST makes oocyte pick up easier ans could increase the number of mature oocyte obtained.
