Summary
This trial aimed to compare different technologies used to destroy endometriosis tissue in humans, as no other studies have directly compared their effectiveness.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adult women aged 18 or older who are scheduled for robotic assisted or laparoscopic surgery to remove endometriosis lesions due to pelvic pain symptoms. It's not open to pregnant women at the time of enrollment or surgery.
What is being tested?
The study compares three different techniques used in surgery to destroy endometriosis tissue: Diathermy, CO2 Laser, and Argon Beam Coagulator. The goal is to find out which method is most effective.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort at the site of ablation, bleeding, infection risk from surgical procedures, and possible damage to surrounding tissues.
