Association between pathological positivity rate of endometriosis, demographics, and concomitant gynecological conditions.

No significant racial difference was found when comparing the rates of 80% pathological positivity of suspected endometriosis lesions among groups. Endometriosis pathological positivity rate was unaffected by patients' BMI and the presence of concomitant pathologies. In addition, prior laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis might cause tissue changes that result in a decrease in the observed pathological positivity rate of endometriosis lesions during subsequent surgeries.
