Choosing the right surgical technique for deep endometriosis: shaving, disc excision, or bowel resection?
Open accessAbstract
Deep endometriosis (DE) remains the most difficult endometriotic entity to treat. Medical treatment for DE can reduce symptoms but does not cure the disease, and surgical removal of the lesion is required when lesions are symptomatic, impairing bowel, urinary, sexual, and reproductive functions. Although several surgical techniques such as laparoscopic bowel resection, disc excision, and rectal shaving have been described, there is no consensus regarding the choice of technique or the timing of surgery. Our review of publications reporting results and complications of surgery for rectovaginal DE reveals a relatively higher complication rate after bowel resection compared with shaving and disc excision, especially for rectovaginal fistulas, anastomotic leakage, delayed hemorrhage, and long-term bladder catheterization. Data show that shaving is feasible even in advanced disease. The risk of immediate complications after shaving and disc excision is probably lower than after colorectal resection, allowing for better functional outcomes. The presumed higher risk of recurrence related to shaving has not been demonstrated. For these reasons, surgeons should consider rectal shaving as a first-line surgical treatment of rectovaginal DE, regardless of nodule size or association with other digestive localizations. When the result of rectal shaving is unsatisfactory (rare cases), disc excision may be performed either exclusively by laparoscopy or by using transanal staplers. Segmental resection may ultimately be reserved for advanced lesions responsible for major stenosis or for several cases of multiple nodules infiltrating the rectosigmoid junction or sigmoid colon.

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“There are, however, several studies and reviews suggesting that discoid resection techniques and especially partial thickness discoid resection (ie rectal shaving) may confer lower postsurgical complication rates compared to segmental resection.”
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“There is, so far, no real consensus on how to optimally treat colorectal endometriosis surgically, since the application of the main three techniques, namely, segmental colorectal resection, full thickness discoid resection (FTDR) and so‐called shaving, depends on various factors which may differ from unit to unit and surgeon to surgeon.”
In the citing paper
“Avoiding repeat surgery in case of recurrence of pain is even more important, as it is well known that this is often the source of severe complications [123].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
