Laser treatment for ovarian endometriosis cysts
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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 study compares two different ablation techniques used during surgery to remove endometriosis lesions. It aims to see which method works better for relieving pelvic pain symptoms.
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 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.
This study combines surgery to remove an ovarian cyst (endometrioma) with fertility treatment (ART) to see if it helps improve pregnancy chances. It is for women who have one cyst and need help getting pregnant.
