Ovarian endometrioma recurrence after laparoscopic surgery: First assessment of ACSAP predicting score.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

We aimed to develop and validate a predictive score to estimate the post-operative recurrence risk after laparoscopic excision of ovarian endometrioma (OMA).

Patients and methods

The prediction score was developed using a training set comprising 431 patients with OMA who underwent laparoscopic surgery at our institution between January 2015 and September 2017. A follow-up period of at least 5 years was required. Clinical data were entered into least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression to build a scoring system that predicted OMA recurrence. A testing set containing 185 patients from October 2017 to October 2018 was used to assess its performance.

Results

Based on LASSO regression, the final score (ACSAP score) included five clinical pr
