Résumé

Endometriosis is seen in 0.5%-5% of fertile and 25%-40% of infertile women. To investigate this conflict between gynecologists that ovarian endometriomas should be removed or not before making any decision about pregnancy among infertile women, the authors decided to carry out a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the effect of various available therapeutic methods and notice the impact of these options on women's pregnancy rate. This review is based on PRISMA recommendations with an electronic search using the following databases: PubMed, Scopus, Google scholar, etc, from 2000 to 2018, in the English language. The studies compare pregnancy rate based on four different treatment types of OMAs between infertile women: (surgery + ART, surgery + spontaneous pregnancy, aspiration ± sclerotherapy + ART, and ART alone). At least eight prospective studies were included, in which 553 infertile women were compared in terms of treatment methods of OMAs before trying to become pregnant. Treatments are usually based on the patient's clinical condition and must be individual, with the purpose of relieving pain, improving fertility, or both. The authors do not have not any significant difference between our four groups of study; however, the success of surgical procedure compared to other methods was higher and the success of ART alone was the least.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Endometriosis is seen in 0.5%-5% of fertile and 25%-40% of infertile women. To investigate this conflict between gynecologists that ovarian endometriomas should be removed or not before making any decision about pregnancy among infertile women, the authors decided to carry out a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the effect of various available therapeutic methods and notice the impact of these options on women's pregnancy rate.
METHODS METHODS
This review is based on PRISMA recommendations with an electronic search using the following databases: PubMed, Scopus, Google scholar, etc, from 2000 to 2018, in the English language. The studies compare pregnancy rate based on four different treatment types of OMAs between infertile women: (surgery + ART, surgery + spontaneous pregnancy, aspiration ± sclerotherapy + ART, and ART alone).
MAIN FINDINGS RESULTS
At least eight prospective studies were included, in which 553 infertile women were compared in terms of treatment methods of OMAs before trying to become pregnant.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
Treatments are usually based on the patient's clinical condition and must be individual, with the purpose of relieving pain, improving fertility, or both. The authors do not have not any significant difference between our four groups of study; however, the success of surgical procedure compared to other methods was higher and the success of ART alone was the least.
