Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: A
ovariopexy for 2 days
if endometriosis was removed from the pelvic side wall or the ovary or both leading to an open wound adjacent to the ovary, ovariopexy was performed on both sides using a transabdominal-transovarian suture being tied extracorporeally on the patients Skin leading to uplifting of the ovary to the abdominal wall
Experimental: B
ovariopexy for 4 days
if endometriosis was removed from the pelvic side wall or the ovary or both leading to an open wound adjacent to the ovary, ovariopexy was performed on both sides using a transabdominal-transovarian suture being tied extracorporeally on the patients Skin leading to uplifting of the ovary to the abdominal wall
Experimental: C
ovariopexy for 6 days
if endometriosis was removed from the pelvic side wall or the ovary or both leading to an open wound adjacent to the ovary, ovariopexy was performed on both sides using a transabdominal-transovarian suture being tied extracorporeally on the patients Skin leading to uplifting of the ovary to the abdominal wall
Placebo Comparator: D
Placebo Operation for 2 days
in arm D sutures are transabdominal only
