Abstract

Our study aimed at evaluating, retrospectively, the outcome of the surgical management of urinary tract endometriosis. Twelve women with a mean age of 36,4 were recruited between 1994 and 2007. They all had a histologically-proven and surgically-treated endometriosis of the urinary tract. Seven of them had a unilateral ureteric localization, two had a bilateral ureteric localization and three had a vesical localization. One patient with bladder nodules underwent a partial cystectomy and the two other patients with bladder localization underwent a transurethral resection. Out of the nine patients who had a ureteric localization of endometriosis, seven had a ureterectomy and re-implantation with bladder psoas hitching and had no recurrence. Our experience showed that ureterectomy and re-implantation with bladder psoas hitching is probably the best way of preventing recurrences in the case of urethral endometriosis. In the case of bladder endometriosis, transurethral resection did not appear as the most effective treatment although it remains an acceptable alternative, especially as far as premenopausal women or young women wishing to conceive are concerned.
