Detailed Description

A questionnaire will be sent to every patient by mail. The questionnaire that will be used is the COREFO questionnaire (ColoRectal Functional Outcome).

Depending on the amount of responses, we will try to make connections between peri-operative data and functional outcome after considerable period of follow-up. Peri-operative factors include grade of endometriosis, surgical technique and post-operative complications.
