SUMMARY Purpose: to evaluate the videolaparoscopic surgical mana-gement of 32 patients with ovarian endometrioma. Method: retrospective study of thirty-two patients admitted to the Gynecologic Endoscopy Section - Gynecology and Obstetrics Department of the Hospital do Servidor Público Estadual "Francisco Morato de Oliveira" - São Paulo - Brazil with clinical and ultrasonographic diagnosis of ovarian endometrioma, who have been submitted to videolaparoscopic surgery. Eleven of them had endometriomas less than 3 cm and had the tumor emptied and the capsule excised at the first laparoscopy. Twenty-one patients with endometriomas larger than 3 cm were submitted to emptying and washing of the cyst at the first laparoscopy. These women used GnRH analogues for four months (1 dose each month) and were then submitted to a second laparoscopy when the capsule was excised. Histopathologic study was performed in the surgical tissues of all cases. The early results of the procedure and the recurrence rate were evaluated. Results: there were no surgical intercurrent episodes or postsurgical complications. The problem was solved in all but three patients among the 21 with endometriomas larger than 3 cm. These patients presented recurrence of the disease within a period of 6 to 12 months. Conclusion: the videolaparoscopic surgical management of ovarian endometriomas, with capsule excision, showed good results and small number of recurrences.

Purpose: to evaluate the results of 64 hysteroscopic endometrial ablations using a resectoscope in women with abnormal uterine bleeding of benign etiology and nonresponsive to clinical measures and to describe the failures and their associated conditions. Methods: sixty-four patients with abnormal uterine bleeding were submitted to the intervention between April 1994 and February 2000. The mean age was 42.9 years and the mean parity, 2.6 deliveries. Diagnostic hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy were performed preoperatively. Before surgery, two women received gestrinone, six danazol and 44 GnRH analogue. During the surgery electric cauterization of the fundus uteri and cornual regions was made. Afterwards, with a resectoscope, the endometrium was removed as far as 1 cm above the internal ostium, and as deep as 2 to 3 mm into the myometrium. The uterine distension was obtained with 1.5% glycine and since two years ago with 3% manitol. The average follow-up was 11.5 months. After six months of endometrial ablation, the patients with persistence of symptoms were submitted to hysterectomy. Results: amenorrhea occurred in 31.2% of the patients and hypomenorrhea in 45.3%. The abnormal bleeding was maintained in 23.5%. There was one uterine perforation during the dilatation of the cervix. Results were better in the higher age and parity ranges and in the women who received GnRH analogues (p=0.03). Where the method was not successful there was a statistically significant frequency of submucous myoma (p=0.04) and a nonsignificant increase of secretory endometrium (p=0.12). Conclusions: the method is useful for the management of abnormal uterine bleeding of benign etiology. Previous administration of GnRH analogue is recommended. We suggest a special follow-up for the younger, low parous women, and those with submucous myoma, because they are the group with the poorest results.
