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 follow-up collects long-term outcome data from patients previously treated with HIFU for rectal endometriosis in the named earlier HIFU studies. Participants complete an electronic questionnaire and receive a telephone call to report symptoms and other health parameters. No new procedures are performed; the study relies on patient-reported outcomes and phone monitoring. The goal is to describe durability of symptom change and any late effects after HIFU treatment.
