RESULT: 29 patients experienced of recurrence endometrioma in the present of post operative treatment. The overall recurrence rate was 17.5% (n=29). Recurrence time was 9.2 months (range 6 to 12 months) after cystectomy. Risk factors statistically significant in age of diagnosis, experience of dysmenorrhea ,CA 125 and bilaterality. Laparoscopic as surgical intervention, intraoperative cyst ruptured, higher in ASRM staging, post operative treatment and the duration of treatment were significantly correlated with recurrence endometrioma. CONCLUSION: Looking at results overall, we concluded that identification of risk factors for recurrence helps clinicians to counsel patients regarding their future prognosis and benefit to surgeon in choosing type of surgical intervention.
