Ethanol sclerotherapy for treating ovarian endometriomas

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study investigates the effectiveness of ultrasonography-guided ethanol sclerotherapy as a treatment for ovarian endometriomas, which are cystic masses associated with pelvic pain and infertility. The approach aims to destroy the inner epithelial lining of the cyst, leading to inflammation and fibrosis, ultimately resulting in cyst regression while minimizing damage to surrounding ovarian tissue. The study will include women with endometriomas measuring 25-100 mm in diameter and will exclude those with other infertility causes.
