Abstract
BACKGROUND Haemostasis during ovarian cystectomy is reported to damage the ovarian reserve, but the comparative impacts of three haemostasis methods (bipolar energy, suture and haemostatic sealant) on ovarian reserve in patients with ovarian cysts are not well known. METHODS The Cochrane Library, PubMed and Web of Science databases were searched from the date of inception of the database to June 2022 for literature exploring the impact of haemostasis methods during ovarian cystectomy on ovarian reserve. A traditional meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager software. A network meta-analysis (NMA) was performed using Stata and GemTC software. RESULTS The direct meta-analysis comparison indicated that the mean postoperative reduction of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level was significantly higher in the electrocoagulation (bipolar) group than suture and haemostatic sealant group, both in the overall group and subgroup of women with ovarian endometrioma. In NMA, the reduction of postoperative AMH levels in the electrocoagulation (bipolar) group was higher than the suture group at 6 months with a statistical significance, and at 1, 3 and 12 months without a significant difference. The difference in the postoperative decrease of AMH level did not reach statistical significance between suture and sealant, coagulation and haemostatic sealant. The comprehensive ranking results revealed that suture treatment was, with the highest probability, beneficial to the protection of the ovarian reserve. CONCLUSIONS There was insufficient research to detect the optimal haemostasis method for ovarian reserve preservation in ovarian cystectomy. Nevertheless, haemostasis by electrocoagulation (bipolar) should be avoided when possible, and the suture might be considered as the best choice.

Abstract
The objective is to study the clinico-demographic profile, treatment patterns and oncological outcomes in borderline mucinous tumours of the ovary. Retrospective cohort analysis was carried out between January 2017 and December 2019 for patients with a diagnosis of borderline mucinous tumours of the ovary who were treated at our centre. Kaplan-Meier method was used for the estimation of the probability of DFS and OS. Univariate and multivariate analyses based on the Cox proportional hazard model were performed to identify factors associated with DFS and OS. A p-value ≤ 0.05 in a two-tailed test was considered statistically significant. The study population included 75 patients and the median follow-up time for the entire cohort was 24 months. The 5-year DFS for the entire cohort was 79.6% and OS was 90.5%, whereas for stage I disease, 5-year OS was 92.6% as opposed to 60% in the advanced stage. On univariate analysis, only the stage of the disease had a significant association with DFS and OS. Fertility-preserving surgeries had no impact on OS or DFS, and hence, it is suggested that fertility-sparing surgeries may be considered a viable option in young patients with mucinous ovarian tumours. Borderline mucinous tumours of the ovary have excellent survival outcomes and fertility-sparing surgeries should be done whenever feasible.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE Our objective was to determine if ovarian surgery at the time of ovarian detorsion is associated with impaired short-term ovarian function as indicated by ovarian morphology on ultrasound when compared with detorsion alone. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study SETTING: The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto PARTICIPANTS: Patients ≤ 18 years old with confirmed ovarian torsion from January 1, 2004, to December 31, 2018, with ovarian-sparing surgery. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Data were collected on demographics, procedure, intraoperative findings, and postoperative ultrasound. To determine ovarian function, we compared the morphology on the postoperative ultrasound between those with surgery to the ovary and those without surgery to the ovary at the time of detorsion. We also compared the ovarian volume of affected and contralateral ovaries after detorsion and surgery to the affected ovary. RESULTS One hundred and nineteen patients met the inclusion criteria, of whom 67 (56%) had detorsion with surgery to the ovary and 52 (44%) had detorsion alone. There was no statistically significant difference in appearance on the postoperative ultrasound between these groups (P =.446). There was also no statistically significant difference on the postoperative ultrasound of affected and contralateral ovarian volumes after detorsion and surgery to the affected ovary (P = .69). Patients who underwent surgery to the ovary experienced a lower rate of recurrence; however, this did not reach statistical significance, with a P value of 0.080. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates that surgery, eg cystectomy to the ovary at the time of ovarian detorsion, does not appear to impact ovarian function when compared with detorsion alone, as indicated on postoperative imaging. There was also no difference in volume of the affected and contralateral ovaries in those cases that underwent surgery at the time of initial detorsion. This evidence would support that immediate cystectomy at the time of initial ovarian detorsion is not associated with impaired ovarian function, thus avoiding the need for an interval cystectomy.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnostic performance of a Volume and Solid Vascular Tissue Score (VSVTS) for preoperative risk assessment of pediatric and adolescent adnexal masses. DESIGN A retrospective cohort study comprised of all female individuals who presented with an adnexal mass that was managed surgically between April 2011 and March 2016. SETTING The Hospital for Sick Children (Toronto, Ontario, Canada). PARTICIPANTS Female individuals 1-18 years of age who presented to a large tertiary pediatric hospital with an adnexal mass that was managed surgically. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Main outcome measures included diagnostic performance of the VSVTS for malignancy via sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), positive likelihood ratio (LR+), negative likelihood ratio (LR-), and receiver operating characteristic area-under-the-curve (AUC) analysis. RESULTS A total of 179 masses in 169 subjects were included. The malignancy rate was 10.6%. The AUC for the VSTVS was 0.919. A VSTVS cut-off value of 4 achieved a sensitivity of 79% (95% CI 0.54-0.93), specificity of 88% (95% CI 0.82-0.93), PPV of 0.44 (95% CI 0.33-0.56), NPV of 0.97 (95% CI 0.94-0.99), LR+ of 6.77 (95% CI 4.18-10.97), and LR- of 0.24 (95% CI 0.10-0.57). CONCLUSIONS A sonographic scoring system based on the volume and presence of solid vascular tissue improves PPV for preoperative risk stratification of adnexal masses in the pediatric and adolescent population compared to existing ultrasound-only approaches. Further prospective research is needed to determine how best to incorporate components of such scoring systems into clinical management algorithms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abdominal wall endometriosis can occur secondary to gynecological and obstetric pelvic laparotomy; however, this is a rare clinical event. There are few cases of endometriosis involving the incision site of a laparoscopic surgery, especially for those of the endometrial nodule at the umbilical trocar port site where the camera is placed.
CASE SUMMARY We describe the case of a 37-year-old woman who presented with a 2-year history of a tough swelling below the umbilicus, which presented periodical pain during menstruation. The patient had undergone laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy 4 years prior, and we theorized that the umbilical nodule was a complication of that laparoscopic surgery. Histological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of abdominal umbilical scar endometriosis secondary to previous laparoscopic surgery. Surgical removal of the nodule followed by three cycles of leuprorelin was curative.
CONCLUSION Abdominal mass and pain in women of childbearing age with a previous history of pelvic surgery should support consideration of endometriosis at the surgical site.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To provide guidelines for clinical practice from the French College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (CNGOF), based on the best evidence available, concerning early stage borderline ovarian tumors (BOT). METHODS Bibliographical search in French and English languages by consultation of Pubmed, Cochrane, Embase, and international databases. RESULTS Considering management of early stage BOT, if surgery is possible without a risk of tumor rupture, the laparoscopic approach is recommended compared to laparotomy (Grade C). In BOT, it is recommended to take all the measures to avoid tumor rupture, including the peroperative decision of laparoconversion (Grade C). In BOT, extraction of the surgical specimen using an endoscopic bag is recommended (Grade C). In case of early stage, uni or bilateral BOT, suspected in preoperative imaging in a postmenopausal patient, bilateral adnexectomy is recommended (Grade B). In cases of bilateral BOT and desire of fertility preservation, a bilateral cystectomy is recommended (Grade B). In case of mucinous BOT and desire of fertility preservation, it is recommended to perform a unilateral adnexectomy (Grade C). In case of endometrioid BOT and desire of fertility preservation, it is not possible to establish a recommendation of treatment choice between cystectomy and unilateral adnexectomy. In case of mucinous BOT at definitive histological analysis in a woman of childbearing age who had an initial cystectomy, surgical revision for unilateral adnexectomy is recommended (Grade C). In the case of serous BOT with definitive histological analysis in a woman of childbearing age who has had an initial cystectomy, it is not recommended to repeat surgery for adnexectomy in the absence of residual suspicious lesion during initial surgery and/or on postoperative imaging (referent ultrasound or pelvic MRI) (Grade C). An omentectomy is recommended for complete initial surgical staging when BOT is diagnosed on extemporaneous analysis or suspected on preoperative radiological elements (Grade B). There is no data in the literature to recommend the type of omentectomy to be performed. If restaging surgery is decided for a presumed early stage BOT, an omentectomy is recommended (Grade B). Multiple peritoneal biopsies are recommended for complete initial surgical staging when BOT is diagnosed on extemporaneous or suspected on preoperative radiological elements (Grade C). In case of restaging surgery for a presumed early stage BOT, exploration of the abdominal cavity should be complete and peritoneal biopsies should be performed on suspicious areas or systematically (Grade C). A primary peritoneal cytology is recommended in order to achieve complete initial surgical staging when BOT is suspected on preoperative radiological elements (Grade C). In case of restaging surgery for presumed early stage BOT, a first peritoneal cytology is recommended (Grade C). For early serous or mucinous BOT, it is not recommended to perform a systematic hysterectomy (Grade C). For early stage endometrioid BOT, and in the absence of a desire to maintain fertility, hysterectomy is recommended for initial surgery or if restaging surgery is indicated (Grade C). For endometrioid-type early stage BOT, if there is a desire for fertility preservation, the uterus may be retained subject to good evaluation of the endometrium by imaging and endometrial sampling (Grade C). In case of surgery (initial or restaging if indicated) for early stage BOT, it is recommended to evaluate the macroscopic appearance of the appendix (Grade B). In case of surgery (initial or restaging if indicated) for early stage BOT, appendectomy is recommended only in case of macroscopically pathological appearance of the appendix (Grade C). Pelvic and lumbar aortic lymphadenectomy is not recommended for initial surgery or restaging surgery for early stage BOT regardless of histologic type (Grade C). In case of BOT diagnosed on definitive histology, the indication of restaging surgery should be discussed in Multidisciplinary Collaborative Meeting. For presumed early stage BOT, it is recommended to use the laparoscopic approach to perform restaging surgery (Grade C). Restaging surgery is recommended for serous BOT with micropapillary appearance and unsatisfactory abdominal cavity inspection during initial surgery (Grade C). Restaging surgery is recommended in case of mucinous BOT if only a cystectomy has been performed or the appendix has not been visualized, then a unilateral adnexectomy will be performed (Grade C). If a restaging surgery is decided in the management of a presumed early stage BOT, the actions to be carried out are as follows: a peritoneal cytology (Grade C), an omentectomy (there is no data in the literature recommending the type of omentectomy to be performed) (Grade B), a complete exploration of the abdominal cavity with peritoneal biopsies on suspect areas or systematically (Grade C), visualization of the appendix± the appendectomy in case of pathological macroscopic appearance (Grade C), unilateral adnexectomy in case of mucinous TFO (Grade C).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze outcomes of IVF treatment among women diagnosed with an ovarian dermoid cyst (DC). METHODS Retrospective analysis of women with an ovarian DC who underwent IVF with fresh blastocyst transfer at a single center in New York from January 2010 to March 2018. Outcomes were compared between women with conservative treatment and those with surgical excision of the DC. Multivariate logistic regression was used to assess associations between variables and the presence of a DC during treatment. RESULTS Overall, 119 women with a DC were included. No differences were found in demographic characteristics, controlled ovarian hyperstimulation parameters, and IVF outcomes between women with an intact DC (n=65, 54.6%) and those who underwent cystectomy (n=54, 45.4%) (all P<0.05). Similarly, there was no difference in anti-Mϋllerian hormone and basal antral follicle count among women with a DC (respectively, β=-0.1, P=0.8, and β=-1.0, P=0.28) or resected DC (respectively, β=0.9, P=0.07, and β=1.5, P=0.08) as compared with control women with no DC (n=352). CONCLUSION Ovarian reserve, embryo implantation and IVF success rates were not lower in the presence of an ovarian DC. Surgical therapy, if indicated, can be safely postponed until family planning goals have been achieved.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnostic performance of the Decision Tree System (DTS) rules 2 and 3 for surgically managed adnexal masses in the North American population and to compare it with the risk stratification criteria used at The Hospital for Sick Children (≥8 cm and complex/solid). DESIGN A retrospective cohort study of patients who presented with adnexal masses and were surgically treated between April 2011 and March 2016. SETTING The Hospital for Sick Children (Toronto, Ontario, Canada). PARTICIPANTS Patients 1-18 years of age with adnexal masses who underwent surgical treatment. INTERVENTIONS AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Main outcome measures included diagnostic performance (preoperative sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value [PPV], and negative predictive value [NPV] for malignancy) of the DTS rules 2 and 3 and ≥8 cm and complex/solid criteria. RESULTS The malignancy rate was 10.4%. The DTS rules 2 and 3 had a sensitivity of 84% (95% confidence interval [CI], 79-90), specificity of 77% (95% CI, 71-83), PPV of 30% (95% CI, 17-42), and NPV of 98% (95% CI, 94-100). The 8 cm or larger and complex/solid criteria had a sensitivity of 89% (95% CI, 85-94), specificity of 71% (95% CI, 64-77), PPV of 27% (95% CI, 16-38), and NPV of 98% (95% CI, 96-100). CONCLUSION Our study showed that DTS rules 2 and 3 had similar diagnostic performance as the 8 cm or larger and complex/solid criteria in the same population, with a very high NPV and a low PPV. Future prospective investigations should be conducted to further assess how DTS components can be incorporated into future algorithms for the management of adnexal masses in the pediatric population.

Abstract
Pituitary adenomas can be classified as functioning or non-functioning adenomas. Approximately 64% of clinically non-functioning pituitary adenomas are found to be gonadotroph adenomas on immunohistochemistry. There are reported cases of gonadotroph adenomas causing clinical symptoms, but this is unusual. We present the case of a 36-year-old female with abdominal pain. Multiple large ovarian cysts were identified on ultrasound requiring bilateral cystectomy. Despite this, the cysts recurred resulting in further abdominal pain, ovarian torsion and right oophorectomy and salpingectomy. On her 3rd admission with abdominal pain, she was found to have a rectus sheath mass which was resected and histologically confirmed to be fibromatosis. Endocrine investigations revealed elevated oestradiol, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) at the upper limit of the normal range and a suppressed luteinising hormone (LH). Prolactin was mildly elevated. A diagnosis of an FSH-secreting pituitary adenoma was considered and a pituitary MRI revealed a 1.5 cm macroadenoma. She underwent transphenoidal surgery which led to resolution of her symptoms and normalisation of her biochemistry. Subsequent pelvic ultrasound showed normal ovarian follicular development. Clinically functioning gonadotroph adenomas are rare, but should be considered in women presenting with menstrual irregularities, large or recurrent ovarian cysts, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and fibromatosis. Transphenoidal surgery is the first-line treatment with the aim of achieving complete remission.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study is to report our initial experience with patients undergoing transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES). MATERIALS AND METHODS From September 2016 to December 2016, patients who were not virgins and did not have pelvic inflammation or obliteration of the cul-de-sac who underwent NOTES hysterectomy or ovarian cystectomy (OC) were included in the study. RESULTS Transvaginal NOTES was performed smoothly in six patients, two patients (mean age 35 years, mean body mass index [BMI] 25) received an OC and four patients (mean age 49 years, mean BMI 27) underwent a hysterectomy. One patient with a hysterectomy received concurrent adhesiolysis. The mean surgical times were 74 and 75 min and blood loss was 50 and 87.5 ml in the OC and hysterectomy groups, respectively. One patient with a hysterectomy had a postoperative fever with 38°C last for 2 days. Pain scores were 0 at 48 h postoperatively in both groups. CONCLUSION Transvaginal NOTES is a feasible and safe technique for hysterectomy and OC in our patients and those in previous reports. This procedure was minimally invasive with no scars on the abdomen as well as little pain.

Abstract
Objective To compare the in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes between women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) after endometrioma operation and women with DOR without ovarian surgery. Methods This retrospective case-control study included 124 women aged under 40 and had DOR (serum anti-Müllerian hormone level <1.1 ng/mL or antral follicle count ≤6). They participated in fresh first and/or second IVF cycles between March in 2010 and December in 2015. Basal characteristics and IVF outcomes were compared between 47 cycles (32 women) with surgery-induced DOR and 119 cycles (92 women) with DOR without ovarian surgery. Results Basal characteristics were similar in both groups except that the median ages were lower in the surgery-induced DOR group compared to the DOR group without ovarian surgery. The data regarding the controlled ovarian stimulation and IVF cycle outcomes showed similar result in both groups. Also, clinical pregnancy and live birth rate were not different significantly between two groups. Conclusion In the same condition of DOR, clinical pregnancy and live birth rate were not different significantly between two groups regarding etiology of DOR.

Abstract
This systematic review compares the effect of suturing and surgical energy used for hemostasis during ovarian cystectomies on ovarian function. A search of Scopus, Embase, and PubMed databases was conducted through December 1, 2016 for prospective, retrospective, and randomized controlled trials that analyzed ovarian function after ovarian cystectomies where hemostasis was obtained using suturing versus surgical energy. Of the 25 studies identified, 12 with a total of 1133 subjects met the criteria and were included in this review. Analysis of the pooled data strongly supports the use of suturing rather than surgical energy (bipolar or ultrasonic coagulation) for hemostasis, because it provides improved preservation of ovarian function at the time of cystectomy. Four of 8 ovarian reserve markers (anti-Müllerian hormone, antral follicle count, peak systolic velocity, and ovarian volume) demonstrated a positive association using suturing, whereas the remainder of ovarian markers showed a positive trend toward suturing or noninferiority to bipolar energy. In conclusion, suturing for hemostasis after ovarian cystectomy is superior to surgical energy in preserving ovarian function. Further studies are needed to assess whether this difference is clinically relevant in regards to fertility and premature ovarian failure. (USPSTF Level II-1 Evidence).

Abstract
Pelvic surgery can affect ovarian reserve, but estimates of the potential effect of different surgical procedures are lacking. This study examines the markers of ovarian reserve after different procedures in order to help the provision of informed consent before surgery. Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), antral follicle count (AFC) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) of women with a history of salpingectomy, ovarian cystectomy or unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy were compared to those without history of surgery using cross-sectional data adjusting for patient and clinical factors in multivariable regression model. There were 138 women who had had salpingectomy, 36 unilateral salpingo-oopherectomy, 41 cystectomy for ovarian cysts that are other than endometrioma and 40 women had had excision of endometrioma. There was no significant difference in AMH (9 %; p = 0.33), AFC (-2 %; p = 0.59) or FSH (-14 %; p = 0.21) in women with a history of salpingectomy compared to women without surgery. Women with a history of unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy were found to have significantly lower AMH (-54 %; p = 0.001). These women also had lower AFC (-28 %; p = 0.34) and higher FSH (14 %; p = 0.06), the effect of which did not reach statistical significance. The study did not find any significant associations between a history of cystectomy, for disease other than endometrioma and AMH (7 %; p = 0.62), AFC (13 %; p = 0.18) or FSH. (11 %; p = 0.16). Women with a history of cystectomy for ovarian endometrioma had 66 % lower AMH (p = 0.002). Surgery for endometrioma did not significantly affect AFC (14 %; p = 0.22) or FSH (10 %; p = 0.28). Salpingo-oopherectomy and cystectomy for endometrioma cause a significant reduction in AMH levels. Neither salpingectomy nor cystectomy for cysts other than endometrioma has appreciable effects on ovarian reserve.

Abstract
Ectopic adrenal cortex is a rare entity. Usually found in male children; commonly located around kidney, retroperitoneum, spermatic cord and para-testicular region. Rarely, adults with heterotopic adrenal glands are described. Incidence in females is very less; though sometimes detected accidentally in hysterectomy specimens. We describe a case of ectopic adrenal cortical cell in paratubal region in a patient with mucinous cyst adenoma of ovary. A 26-year-old female presented with complains of menstrual irregularities and abdominal discomfort for 6 months. Investigations suggested a right ovarian cyst. Right ovarian cystectomy with partial salpingectomy was performed; histopathology revealed mucinous cyst adenoma. Sections from tube showed presence of ectopic adrenal cortical rest in the paratubal region, incidentally discovered on microscopy. We present this case because of its rarity in females, interesting presentation with another unrelated gynaecological pathology, its potentiality for malignant transformation and possible complications.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To compare the postoperative decrease in ovarian reserve between hemostasis by bipolar coagulation and suture during laparoendoscopic single-site cystectomy (LESS-C) for ovarian endometriomas. DESIGN Prospective comparative study (Canadian Task Force Classification II-1). SETTING University hospital. PATIENTS One hundred twenty-five patients with ovarian endometriomas. INTERVENTIONS Patients with endometrioma were managed by hemostasis with either bipolar coagulation (n = 62) or suturing (n = 63) during LESS-C. We evaluated the impact of surgery on ovarian reserve using serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, which were measured before surgery and 3 months after surgery in all patients. MEASUREMENT AND MAIN RESULTS Baseline characteristics such as age, bilaterality of endometriomas, and preoperative AMH levels were similar between the 2 study groups. There were also no differences between the 2 groups in surgical outcomes, such as operative time, operative blood loss, or operative complications. In both study groups, postoperative AMH levels were lower than preoperative AMH levels (p < .001). The decline rate of AMH levels was significantly greater in the bipolar coagulation group than in the suture group (42.2% [interquartile range, 16.5%-53.0%] and 24.6% [interquartile range, 11.6%-37.0%], respectively, p = .001). CONCLUSION Hemostasis by bipolar coagulation after stripping of the endometrioma during LESS-C reduces ovarian reserve more than suturing does, as determined by serial AMH levels. Therefore, suturing may be a better hemostatic choice after stripping ovarian endometriomas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the factors influencing the operative duration of ovarian cystectomy by single-port access (SPA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Observational monocentric study from June 2010 to September 2012. Inclusive patients were patients with an indication of ovarian cystectomy may be done by laparoscopy. The procedures were performed by the SPA system LESS®. Factors evaluated were BMI of the patient, histological nature and size of the cyst. RESULTS We performed 54 cystectomy in 49 patients. SPA surgery was successfully completed in 53 patients. The median operative time was statistically longer for endometriotic cysts than dermoid cysts or serous-mucinous cysts (P=0.003). Cases exceeding 60minutes were significantly higher in the endometriosis group (P=0.005). There wasn't correlation found between the BMI of the patient and operative time (P=0.5). The operating time wasn't increased according to the size of the cyst (P=0.9). CONCLUSION Endometriotic cysts nature appears to be the only limiting factor of cystectomy by SPA. Further studies are needed to evaluate the factors that may limit the SPA actions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS) is emerging as an alternative technique to conventional laparoscopy for the treatment of common surgical diseases. CASE We report a case of a 13-year-old female with self-limited abdominal pain. Imaging studies showed a right ovarian mass with features of a dermoid cyst and an appendicolith within the appendix without signs of acute appendicitis. She underwent concomitant LESS ovarian cystectomy and appendectomy without any complications. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION LESS is feasible with standard laparoscopic instruments. It is a safe technique with excellent cosmetic results and minimal postoperative pain.

Abstract
The minimally invasive laparoscopic approach in the surgical treatment of diseases during pregnancy has become progressively more accepted and applied. In an attempt to overcome the potential adverse effects of pneumoperitoneum on the fetus, gasless laparoscopic surgery (GLS) has been developed. This article reviews the evidence available for the role and effectiveness of GLS in pregnancy. A computerized literature search was conducted on Medline, Science Citation Index, Current Contents, Embase, and PubMed databases for English language publications from the first report of GLS in pregnancy in 1995 to June 2012. Eleven case reports or retrospective series were identified. A total of 44 pregnant women underwent GLS for various surgical indications. In all cases, the procedures were carried out without complication, and the women were discharged from hospital with a continuing pregnancy. GLS in pregnancy has comparable outcomes to conventional CO2 laparoscopy, but it is associated with some advantages. Hypercarbia and increased intraperitoneal pressure due to CO2 insufflation are avoided. The use of high-pressure continuous suction may prevent the problems that are potentially associated with intra-abdominal smoke generated by electrosurgery, which can increase the risk of fetal exposure to elevated levels of toxic gases. Because this procedure may be performed under regional anesthesia, avoiding general anesthesia, there is a minimal transplacental passage of anesthetic drugs to the fetus. The surgeon must be expert in advanced laparoscopic procedures.

Abstract
Innovation in gynecologic surgery is constantly evolving toward making procedures less invasive. The benefits of laparoscopic surgery over conventional abdominal surgery have been well demonstrated in terms of reducing postoperative pain and decreasing postoperative morbidity, hospital stay duration, and postoperative recovery time. The minimally invasive single-port laparoscopic surgery is another innovation that may further improve gynecologic surgery outcomes. This article reviews the history and types of single-port procedures available, as well as the advantages and challenges that physicians face regarding the adoption of these procedures into general practice.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the first line of infertility treatment for managing patients with unilateral or bilateral ovarian endometriomas. Methods We evaluated pregnancy outcome in patients who had received ovarian surgery for unilateral (Group U, n = 47) or bilateral endometriomas (Group B, n = 38) and aspiration with or without alcohol fixation for unilateral (Group u, n = 37) or bilateral endometriomas (Group b, n = 22). Subsequently, 64 of these women, excluding 29 dropouts, underwent assisted reproductive technology. We compared the clinical pregnancy rates of the four groups. Results The cumulative pregnancy rate after operation of Group B (18%) was significantly lower than that of a cyst-free control group (n = 143; 44%) and Group U (43%). Group B had fewer oocytes fertilized during ART than did Group b (P < 0.005) and fewer blastocysts available for transfer (P < 0.005). The cumulative pregnancy rate of Group B was also lower than in Group b (P = 0.052). Conclusions Pregnancy outcomes of Group B were not better than for Group b. Therefore, encouraging such women to move directly to ART might help avoid ovarian damage and improve their ability to achieve a pregnancy.
