Ultrasound and single-port laparoscopic-guided microwave ablation of abdominal wall endometriosis lesions: A single-center observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Raising the temperature of abdominal wall endometriosis lesions contributes to an effective ablation; however, providing sufficient protection to the surrounding tissues remains a challenge. In this study, we aimed to combine ultrasound and single-port laparoscopic images to not only achieve complete ablation of abdominal wall endometriosis lesions but also protect surrounding tissues from damage. The adverse events and complications were Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events grade 1 or Society of Interventional Radiology classification grade A.

Material and methods

This historical study included 30 patients with abdominal wall endometriosis who underwent ultrasound and single-port laparoscopic-guided microwave ablation at the Ultrasonography and Gyneco
