The objective: To study the effectiveness and long-term outcomes of sclerotherapy for ovarian endometriomas and to substantiate the conditions and indications for minimally invasive intervention. Patients and methods: We analysed 124 interventions performed by the technique of aspiration (sclerosing) therapy of endometrioid ovarian cysts. The patients' age varied from 18 to 42 years, averaging 26.4 ± 4.2 years. The mean diameter of ovarian endomeriomas varied from 25 to 65 mm. In 84 (67.7%) of observations, pathological process was unilateral, in 72.3% - bilateral. 43 (34.6%) women had disease recurrence after previously performed cystectomy, in 28 (22.6%) endometrioid cysts were located in the only ovary and in 7 (5.6%) patients ultrasonography found that the ovary contralateral to endometrioid tumour was sharply decreased and its sections lacked the signs of antral follicles after preceding cystectomy. In fact, in 35 (28.2%) patients endometrioma was diagnosed in the only ovary. All patients after aspiration therapy of endometriomas received dienogest (2 mg) + ethinylestradiol (0.03 mg) (Siluette®, «Gedeon Richter»). Results: The recurrence rate of endometriomas during the first 12 months of follow-up was 38.7%, during the first 3 months of follow-up this parameter did not exceed 9.7%. Within 7-12 months after intervention spontaneous pregnancy occurred in 36.3% (46) of women, ending with childbirth in all cases (with the use of contraception 25 patients - 46%). Conclusion: Sclerotherapy of ovarian endometriomas with ultrasound monitoring of intervention is a minimally invasive method of treating women of reproductive age, ensuring preservation of ovarian reserve. It is not a monotherapy, its outcome is in many respects determined by the adequacy of postoperative hormonal treatment.
