Brief summary
The ENDOFERT Study is an open, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, controlled trial. This study includes patients presenting colorectal DIE and infertility. Patients will be randomized in two parallel-groups; one group underwent complete surgery of colorectal DIE prior to ART and the other group underwent ART alone (ratio 1:1)
Interventions
complete surgery of colorectal deep infiltrating endometriosis
IVF without endometriosis surgery

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical pregnancy after 2 IVF cycles | At the end of the 2nd IVF cycle (therefore at 6 weeks after each embryo transfer) | Clinical pregnancy is defined as pregnancy at 6 weeks of gestation with ultrasound echographic confirmation. An IVF cycle is defined as the transfer of all the embryos created via IVF after 1 oocytes puncture until a pregnancy confirmation or until the failure of the last embryo transfer. 2 embryos are transferred for each transfer steps. The length of one cycle depend on the number of embryo transfer steps. It is usually between 2 and 9 months. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| predictive factors | At the end of the 2nd IVF cycle | The expected predictive factors observed according to the fecundity status after 2 IVF cycles An IVF cycle is defined as the transfer of all the embryos created via IVF after 1 oocytes puncture until a pregnancy confirmation or until the failure of the last embryo transfer. 2 embryos are transferred for each transfer steps. The length of one cycle depend on the number of embryo transfer steps. It is usually between 2 and 9 months. |
| Clinical pregnancy rate after 1st IVF cycle | At the end of the 1st IVF cycle (therefore at 6 weeks after each embryo transfer) | Clinical pregnancy is defined as pregnancy at 6 weeks of gestation with ultrasound echographic confirmation. An IVF cycle is defined as the transfer of all the embryos created via IVF after 1 oocytes puncture until a pregnancy confirmation or until the failure of the last embryo transfer. 2 embryos are transferred for each transfer steps. The length of one cycle depend on the number of embryo transfer steps. It is usually between 2 and 9 months. |
| Clinical pregnancy rate per embryo transferred | At the end of the 2nd IVF cycle (therefore at 6 weeks after each embryo transfer) | Clinical pregnancy is defined as pregnancy at 6 weeks of gestation with ultrasound echographic confirmation. An IVF cycle is defined as the transfer of all the embryos created via IVF after 1 oocytes puncture until a pregnancy confirmation or until the failure of the last embryo transfer. 2 embryos are transferred for each transfer steps. The length of one cycle depend on the number of embryo transfer steps. It is usually between 2 and 9 months. |
| The IVF complication | 24 months after surgery or inclusion in "IVF without surgery" group | rate of hyperstimulation, superinfection, worsening of pain and hospitalization related to IVF procedures in each group. |
| perioperative complications | 24 months after surgery | Complications rate of perioperative surgical excision according to the CLAVIEN-DINDO grading system and to the Comprehensive Complication Index |
| The cumulative IVF cycle cancellation rate | At the end of the 2nd IVF cycle | The cumulative IVF cycle cancellation rate in each group. An IVF cycle is defined as the transfer of all the embryos created via IVF after 1 oocytes puncture until a pregnancy confirmation or until the failure of the last embryo transfer. 2 embryos are transferred for each transfer steps. The length of one cycle depend on the number of embryo transfer steps. It is usually between 2 and 9 months. |
