Popis:	The aim of this study was to compare ovarian reserve, oocytes quality and pregnancy outcome of endometrioma treatment by laparoscopic stripping (LS) versus endometrioma ethanol sclerotherapy (EST) in infertile women awaiting in-vitro fertilization (IVF).Retrospective analysis was performed. Twenty-three women underwent EST and 26 women LS. Intra- and postoperative complications were recorded. The women were followed-up for 36 months for cyst recurrence, oocytes quality and pregnancy outcome. Serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels after treatment were measured to observe the impact on the ovarian reserve. Women's satisfaction was investigated with PGI-I.During follow-up, there were 3 endometriomas recurrences after LS and none after EST. Six months after treatment AMH was 3.17±2.15 in EST vs. 2.22±1.97 in LS, P=0.045. Symptoms' improvement was comparable. No intraoperative complications occurred. In the LS group the postoperative complications were significantly higher. After IVF cycles, the quality of the retrieved oocytes was the same. In EST group, clinical pregnancy (48.1% vs. 19.6%) and live birth rates (36.5% vs. 14.3%) were significantly increased compared to LS. Women's satisfaction was comparable at PGI-I. Both EST and the presence of an endometrioma sized 6 cm or less proved to be independent factors of a better live birth rate in multivariate analysis.EST efficacy was greater than LS for endometrioma. Ovarian function was well preserved. Hospital stay was shorter, fewer complications occurred. Pregnancy outcome was better after EST.
