Clinical presentation of perineal endometriosis and prognostic nomogram after surgical resection.

PEM is a rare kind of endometriosis and surgery is the primary treatment. Multiple lesions and ASI are independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence, and wide resection with more peripheral tissue could be preferred. The proposed nomogram resulted in effective prognostic prediction for PEM patients receiving surgical excision. In addition, this predictive nomogram needs external data sets to further validate its prognostic accuracy in the future.
