Az idegkímélő műtéti technika jelentősége a mélyen infiltráló endometriosis sebészetében

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Traditional surgeries performed in cases of deep infiltrating endometriosis lead to impaired quality of life. AIM: To summarize the postoperative outcome and to compare the rate of postoperative complications after different therapeutic approaches applied in deep infiltrating endometriosis. METHOD: The authors analized the articles published between March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2015, in the database http://www.pubmed.org using the following keywords: endometriosis, deep infiltrating, nerve sparing, surgery. RESULTS: Non-nerve sparing surgery resulted in temporary urinary dysfunction in 19.1-38.5% of patients, while it occurred in 0.61-33.3% of patients after nerve-sparing surgery. Non-nerve sparing surgical technique resulted in an avarage of 121 days of need for self-catheretisation. When nerve-sparing surgeries were performed the duration of self-catheterisation varied between 7 to 39.8 days. After nerve sparing surgeries, permanent bladder dysfunction was not detected in any case. CONCLUSIONS: Because of the successful treatment of the patients symptoms and the lower postoperative complication rate, nerve-sparing surgical technique leads to a significant improvement of the quality of life.
