February 28, 2023 updated by: Amparo Garcia-Tejedor, Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge

Anti-mullerian Hormone in Ovarian Reserve Evaluation After Treatment of Endometriomas With Alcohol Sclerotherapy Versus Surgery: Clinical Trial

The purpose of this multicenter study is to compare the ovarian reserve after alcohol sclerosis of the endometriomas against conventional surgery (AMH, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and antral follicles count) as well as the complications and costs between the 2 procedures.

Terminated

Detailed Description

Clinical Trial Phase III, Multicenter, National, open, parallel-group assignment 1: 1, stratified by age, previous oophorectomy and uni- or bilateral ovarian involvement. Patients with suspected ovarian endometrioma by ultrasound will be randomized into 2 groups: (a) Study Group: echoguided aspiration plus sclerosis with alcohol; (B) Control group: Laparoscopic Cystectomy. Pre-treatment, and 6 months after treatment, AMH values will be determined. Complications, recurrences and costs from each treatment will be collected.
