Laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat endometriosis, a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows outside the uterus, causing pain, infertility, and other symptoms. Laparoscopy allows surgeons to view the pelvic organs directly and remove or treat the endometrial tissue that has grown inappropriately.
