Abstract

Purpose

We aimed to assess post-operative complications based on the Clavien–Dindo classification system following routine laparoscopic treatment of all stages of endometriosis.

Methods

A retrospective cohort study was carried out to identify women who underwent laparoscopic complete resection of newly diagnosed endometriosis between 2013 and 2016. 401 patients were identified using hospital database search software, and electronic files were reviewed. The stages of endometriosis had been classified according to the revised score of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine (rASRM) and the Enzian classification in cases of deep infiltrating endometriosis. Post-operative complications were recorded based on the Clavien–Dindo classification. Multivariate regression analysis was used to investigate the impact of the stages of endometriosis and surgical steps on complications.

Results

Grade III complications requiring surgical, endoscopic, or radiological intervention occurred in only 1.7% of patients and were significantly associated with rASRM stage IV (OR 1.8). Grade II complications (blood transfusion, total parenteral nutrition) occurred in 18.7% of patients. rASRM stage IV (OR 2.0), hysterectomy (OR 3.2), conversion to laparotomy (OR 11.1), and bowel resection (OR 27.6) were significantly associated with increased risk of grade II complications. rASRM stages I–III did not show an effect on post-operative complications or hospital stay.

Conclusions

Clavien–Dindo complication grading was readily applicable to laparoscopic removal of endometriosis of all stages. Higher Clavien–Dindo grades correctly reflected clinically relevant complications and were associated with deep infiltrating endometriosis, stage IV endometriosis, bowel surgery, or hysterectomy. Clavien–Dindo classification can be recommended for evaluation of laparoscopic endometriosis surgery outcome.
