If the endometriosis is not fully removed, any persistent disease may remain active, symptomatic and may continue to progress. If all areas of disease are meticulously removed, the chance of recurrence (new disease forming) is very low. Most patients will experience continued relief with no recurrence following the complete removal of their endometriosis.<\/p>\n<p>Any surgeon who has dedicated his career to caring for women with endometriosis will understand that the primary method of treating this disease is via wide excision, as this is the technique best suited to effectively removing all areas of diseased tissue.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;11326&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; style=&#8221;vc_box_rounded&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]<style>.ld_spacer_69d45c2a73cc4{height:32px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"ld-empty-space ld_spacer_69d45c2a73cc4\"><span class=\"liquid_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div>[vc_separator color=&#8221;custom&#8221; accent_color=&#8221;#532f64&#8243;][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1556297412880{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; color: #532f64;\"><em>The purpose of surgical excision is to fully remove all areas of abnormal tissue from the body.<br \/>\n-Dr. Cook<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=&#8221;custom&#8221; accent_color=&#8221;#532f64&#8243;]<style>.ld_spacer_69d45c2a73cf9{height:32px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"ld-empty-space ld_spacer_69d45c2a73cf9\"><span class=\"liquid_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;fadeIn&#8221;]The core concept in the effective surgical treatment of endometriosis is the complete&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"parent":6714,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-11071","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vitalhealth.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/11071","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vitalhealth.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vitalhealth.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vitalhealth.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vitalhealth.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11071"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.vitalhealth.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/11071\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vitalhealth.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6714"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vitalhealth.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11071"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
