Popis: To compare the effects of preoperative dienogest (DNG) and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist administration on the improvement of preoperative symptoms and surgical outcomes in patients who underwent laparoscopic cystectomy for ovarian endometriomas. Seventy patients who were scheduled for laparoscopic surgery were enrolled in the study. They were divided into two groups: 35 patients who received DNG for 4 months preoperatively (group D) and 35 patients who received low-dose sustained-release goserelin acetate for 4 months preoperatively (group G). Preoperative outcomes, including pain score associated with endometriosis, using the numerical rating scale (NRS), adverse events of hormonal therapy and Kupperman index (KI) before and after treatment, surgical outcomes including total surgical duration and blood loss, and postoperative recurrence of endometrioma were compared between the two groups. Regarding preoperative symptoms, NRS and KI at 4 months after preoperative hormonal therapy were significantly lower in group D than in group G (NRS, 5.3 ± 5.5 vs. 2.7 ± 3.9; P = 0.01; KI, 16.0 ± 11.0 vs. 9.2 ± 7.6; P = 0.006). Regarding adverse events, the incidence of hot flashes was significantly lower in group D than in group G (P
