“…Dubernard et al [47] evaluated the quality of life in 58 women after laparoscopic colorectal resection using the validated questionnaire Medical Outcomes Study SF-36 and observed that all its items improved after surgery. Similar results were obtained by Ford et al [42] in 60 patients following radical resection of RVE and by Lyons et al [48] in seven patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery, both using the EQ-5D questionnaire.…”

“…There were also five nonsystematic revisions published [3,28,[32][33][34]. In some of the studies, a radical treatment was assessed [5,13,15,[25][26][27][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56], while others assessed a conservative one [57][58][59][60][61][62][63]. There were six nonrandomized papers in which groups of patients with different therapeutic options were compared [30,[35][36][37][38][39].…”

“…Initially, the majority of papers defended a conservative surgical approach directed toward the extirpation or ablation of the endometriosic lesions with minimal excisional surgery of the rectum [6,12,[65][66][67][68]. However, in the last decade, multiple authors have proposed more aggressive techniques including intestinal resection, especially in those cases with an affected muscularis propia of the rectum but also in those having an intact mucosa [5,13,15,[25][26][27][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56]. The argument used for the practice of this radical surgery is that of achieving the greatest resection possible of the endometriosic lesions, diminishing the postoperative symptomatology and avoiding any early relapse of the disease [41,42].…”

“…In some reports, a subjective improvement is shown in the patients' global quality of life with respect to the time prior to the surgery [42,45,47,48,50]. Dubernard et al [47] evaluated the quality of life in 58 women after laparoscopic colorectal resection using the validated questionnaire Medical Outcomes Study SF-36 and observed that all its items improved after surgery.…”

Surgical treatment of rectovaginal endometriosis with rectal involvement

et al. 2011

Rectovaginal endometriosis (RVE) is one of the most serious and incapacitating forms of presentation of this disease. Traditionally, medical treatment has not been considered effective for the majority of patients, being surgery the only reasonable and therapeutic choice in these cases. This exposes patients to a potentially serious morbidity, thus a careful evaluation should be done by a surgical board considering the impact of the disease as well as the quality of life of the patients. The main surgical techniques used are the shaving of the rectal wall affected by the endometriosic implants, the discoid excision of the front rectal wall, and the segmental intestinal resection, and there is no consensus concerning which is the most effective and suitable between them. The bibliography published in the last 10 years relating to the surgical treatment of RVE is being reviewed with the intention of updating the knowledge base about the topic and looking for common ground between different studies, allowing us to come closer to reaching a consensus about treatment for this pathology.

RESUMOEste estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a função sexual das pacientes com endometriose, bem como a participação de fatores de risco. Foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica no PubMed, em março de 2014, empregando os seguintes descritores: quality of sex life and endometriosis, sexual life and endometriosis, female sexual dysfunction and endometriosis e sexual functioning and endometriosis. Foram encontrados 152 artigos e de acordo com os critérios de inclusão e exclusão previamente estabelecidos, 20 foram selecionados. Treze estudos investigaram a contribuição do tratamento na disfunção sexual feminina. Ansiedade e depressão são fatores que também influenciam a função sexual, mas foram investigadas em apenas três estudos. As pacientes com endometriose exibem comprometimento da função sexual e, portanto, a investigação sobre sua vida sexual deve ser averiguada, tendo em vista os prejuízos causados pela disfunção na qualidade de vida das mulheres. Palavras ABSTRACTThis study aimed to evaluate the sexual function of patients with endometriosis, as well as the involvement of risk factors. A literature search was performed in PubMed, in March 2014, using the following key words: quality of sex life and endometriosis, sexual life and endometriosis, female sexual dysfunction and endometriosis e sexual functioning and endometriosis.152 articles were found, according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria previously established, 20 were selected. Thirteen studies investigated the contribution of treatment in female sexual dysfunction. Anxiety and depression are factors that also influence sexual function, but has been investigated in only three studies. Patients with endometriosis exhibit impaired sexual function and, therefore, research into your sex life should be investigated, in view of the damage caused by dysfunction in the quality of life of women.
