Brief Summary:
The purpose of this multicenter study is to compare the ovarian reserve after alcohol sclerosis of the endometriomas against conventional surgery (AMH, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and antral follicles count) as well as the complications and costs between the 2 procedures.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Endometrioma Fertility Disorders Procedure: Surgery Procedure: Sclerotherapy Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
Clinical Trial Phase III, Multicenter, National, open, parallel-group assignment 1: 1, stratified by age, previous oophorectomy and uni- or bilateral ovarian involvement. Patients with suspected ovarian endometrioma by ultrasound will be randomized into 2 groups: (a) Study Group: echoguided aspiration plus sclerosis with alcohol; (B) Control group: Laparoscopic Cystectomy. Pre-treatment, and 6 months after treatment, AMH values will be determined. Complications, recurrences and costs from each treatment will be collected.

    the value of AMH in ng/mL


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from Baseline antral follicles count [ Time Frame: prior and 6 months after both procedures ]
    US antral follicles count

  2. Complications [ Time Frame: 1 month after the procedure ]
    number of participants with complications

  3. Costs [ Time Frame: 1 month after the procedure ]
    costs (euros) of the procedure plus cost of their complications

  4. Change from Baseline Pain [ Time Frame: prior and 6 months after both procedures ]
    Visual Analog Score for pain (ranged 1-10). Patients pain evaluation fron 1 no pain to 10 maximum pain considered
