The procedure described above is another technique to surgically treat endometriosis. It is a reproducible technique with a fast learning curve (6 weeks), making it a wide spread technique for all gynecologists who are specialized in endometriosis. Since the CO2 laser penetrates just micrometers in the tissue, we use the laser when the risk of injury for nearby structures is high. Having the opportunity to use the fiber (and its handpiece) simplifies the procedure since it’s easier to imagine the direction of the laser compared to the free beam -- and the fiber produces less smoke. Finally, using the laser for treating endometriosis opens a new field characterized by easily reproducible techniques and good clinical outcomes.
