Abstract
Endometriosis-related infertility remains a therapeutic challenge. A burning issue in this field of research is determining whether pre-assisted reproductive technology (ART) surgery may be of some benefit in terms of reproductive outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed at comparing ongoing pregnancy rates (OPR) and/or live birth rates (LBR) in patients who underwent endometriosis surgery before ART (IVF/ICSI) in comparison with patients who underwent first-line ART (IVF/ICSI). Searches were conducted from January 1990 to June 2021 on PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library using the following search terms: endometriosis, surgery, reproductive outcomes, and IVF/ICSI. The primary outcomes were OPR or LBR. A total of 19 studies were included in the meta-analysis. No statistically significant differences in LBR [0.91[0.63, 1.30]; I2 = 66%; n = 11], OPR [1.28[0.66, 2.49]; I2 = 60%; n = 3], and early pregnancy loss rate [0.88[0.62, 1.25]; I2 = 0%; n = 7] per cycle were found when comparing patients who underwent endometriosis surgery before IVF/ICSI and those who did not. After the exclusion of the studies with high risks of bias, the LBR per cycle was significantly reduced in the case of surgical treatment before IVF/ICSI [0.53[0.33, 0.86]; I2 = 30%; n = 4]. These data urge the clinician to carefully weigh the pros and cons before referring infertile patients with endometriosis to surgery before IVF, highlighting the key role of multidisciplinary referral centers.

Abstract
Endometriosis is a disease that has a profound impact on the quality of life of women, due to the associated chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia and infertility. However, even getting long-awaited pregnancy (often after assisted reproductive technologies), patients with endometriosis have a high risk of obstetric complications, such as miscarriage, preterm birth, preeclampsia, placental abnormalities, hemorrhage in labor, birth of small for gestational age infants, stillbirth and higher cesarean section rate. In addition, during pregnancy acute complications of endometriosis may occur, such as spontaneous hemoperitoneum, which is rare but life-threatening conditions that in most cases require surgical intervention. The mechanisms of the observed complications in pregnant women with endometriosis are not fully understood. This review presents literature data and personal considerations on the effect of endometriosis on pregnancy outcome and the occurrence of complications, as well as their possible underlined mechanisms. Based on this, we proposed ways to reduce the risk of obstetric complications in pregnant women with a history of endometriosis.

Abstract
Introduction: Endometriosis, the most common gynecological disorder, is a challenging disease observed in 20% - 40% of subfertile women. Material and Methods: 380 women were divided into four groups. Group A consisted of 176 women with pelvic endometriosis. Group B consisted of 125 women who had previously undergone a laparoscopic endometrioma cystectomy. Group C consisted of 38 women with recurrent endometriomas without aspiration before IVF-ET/ICSI. Group D consisted of 41 women with recurrent endometriomas undergone aspiration before IVF-ET/ICSI. Results: Baseline FSH level (8.61 ± 3.42 mIU/mL) and total dose of Gn (2337.15 ± 853.00 IU) in Group A were the lowest (p < 0.05). The number of retrieved oocytes in Group B (7.98 ± 5.05) was significantly fewer than those in Group A and D (p < 0.05). The numbers of MII oocytes in Groups A, C and D were significantly larger than that in Group B. The number of retrieved oocytes, high-quality embryos, implantation and pregnancy rates were similar in Groups C and D. Conclusions: Pelvic endometriosis had a less adverse effect on ovarian reserve than endometrioma. No advantage was found in transvaginal aspiration for recurrent endometriomas before IVF-ET/ICSI.
