Chronic Pelvic Pain due to Postmenopausal Endometriosis

This included total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingectomy subsequently followed by bilateral-oophorectomy 3 years prior. Following her surgical menopause, she underwent six additional robotically assisted procedures during a 3 year period of time which involved fulguration of endometriosis. She denied having had any prior excisional procedures performed.
