Abstract

The PEARS (Pelvic Endoscopic Adhesion-Related Surgery) procedure for peritoneal and ovarian endometriosis combines near-contact laser vaporization, adhesiolysis, and ovarian cystectomy under strict anti-adhesion protocols to achieve comprehensive disease eradication while preserving ovarian reserve. Outcomes data demonstrate superior fertility and pain resolution compared to incomplete surgical approaches, establishing PEARS as the operative standard within NaProTECHNOLOGY.
