Perspectives
Endometriosis is defined as the abnormal implantation of functional endometrial epithelium with stroma outside the uterine cavity. It affects women during their genital period with a prevalence of 10%. Its main locations are endopelvic, mainly involving the internal genitalia (ovaries, fallopian tubes, myometrium), the utero sacral ligaments, the broad ligament and the bladder.
