The risk for recurrence after surgery for endometriosis may be substantially influenced by the patients' perception of pain. Risk classifications for the recurrence risk in endometriosis are nonexistent. Developing these is imperatively needed soon to improve further treatment and/or prophylaxis for patients after surgery. A classification might be improved by adding sensory testing before surgery.
