Using ultrasound to remove ovarian cysts caused by endometriosis
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial uses a special ultrasound device to remove cysts on the ovary caused by endometriosis. It aims to see if this gentler method works well and helps preserve healthy ovarian tissue.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with an ovarian cyst from endometriosis.
- You are scheduled for surgery to remove the cyst or the ovary at Kanazawa University Hospital between early 2025 and early 2027.
- You are 20 years or older.
- You are willing to give your permission to be in the study.
- If you already gave broad permission for your tissue to be stored, you'll need to give extra permission for this study.

This study tests a new laser treatment to destroy ovarian cysts caused by endometriosis during laparoscopic surgery. The goal is to see if the laser can safely remove the cyst wall, which might help reduce pain and preserve fertility.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for removing ovarian endometriomas (chocolate cysts) in women with pain or infertility. The goal is to see which method better preserves egg supply (ovarian reserve).
This study looks at how ovary function changes after surgery to remove a cyst from the ovary. It compares women with endometriosis-related cysts to those with other types, to better understand recovery.
This study uses artificial intelligence to make ultrasound scans more accurate for diagnosing conditions like endometriosis and other uterine problems. If you're planning fertility treatment or surgery, this could help doctors find issues earlier.
This study compares two ways to treat ovarian endometriomas during surgery: the standard method (removing the cyst) versus a newer technique using argon plasma (a gas that burns away tissue without cutting). The goal is to see which approach works better and helps preserve your ovaries.
This trial tests if a less invasive ultrasound-guided ethanol injection works as well as laparoscopic surgery for treating ovarian endometriomas (fluid-filled cysts from endometriosis). It may offer a treatment option with fewer side effects.
