Abstract:

Ovarian endometriotic cyst (OEC) is the most common form of endometriosis, which can cause pain and infertility. Because of its malignant tumor characteristics such as hyperplasia, invasion, destruction of ovarian function and recurrence after treatment, clinicians pay more and more attention to the treatment of OEC complicated with infertility. At present, the main treatment methods include surgical treatment, drug therapy and assisted reproductive therapy, which sometimes need to complement each other. However, so far, there is controversy about how to effectively improve the pregnancy rate of infertile patients with OEC. This article reviews the mechanism of infertility caused by OEC, the problems existing in laparoscopic cystectomy, the protection of ovarian function during operation,the progress of sclerotherapy, assisted reproductive therapy, the use of GnRH before IVF treatment and the surgical treatment of OEC, in order to provide reference for the clinical treatment of OEC complicated with infertility.
