Abstract

Given the complexities and controversies that exist in diagnosing adult endometriosis, as well as optimizing medical and surgical management, it is not surprising that there is even more ambiguity and inconsistency in the optimal surgical care of endometriosis in the adolescent. This collaborative commentary aimed to provide evidence-based recommendations optimizing the role of surgical interventions for endometriosis in the adolescent patient with input from experts in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, pediatric and adolescent gynecology, and infertility/reproductive medicine.
