Abstract :ABSTRACT OBJECTİVE: This study was concerned with the examination of patients who underwent surgery for subcutaneous endometriosis in our clinic and the relationship between subcutaneous endometriosis and inflammatory markers. MATERİALS AND METHODS: Patient demographics and information on history and duration of previous surgery, lesion size, number of lesions, location, recurrence, symptoms, type and number of deliveries, recurrence status, and imaging method were recorded. Laboratory analysis recorded TSH, blood count insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Hb);, WBC, mean platelet volume insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MPV);, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(NLR);, monocyte/platelet ratio insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MPR);, lymphocyte/monocyte ratio insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(LMR);, platelet/lymphocyte ratio insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PLR); and CA -125 values of patients. RESULTS: The study included 28 patients and it was found that the mean age of the patients was 32.67±5.56 years. Five insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(17.9%); and 18 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(64.3%); of the patients complained of a palpable mass and cyclic pain, respectively. Five patients insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(17.9%); were asymptomatic. Endometriosis associated with the scar line was localized in 18 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(64.3%); of the patients. In three insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(10.7%); of the patients, the endometriosis was localized in the perineal line and in 7 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(25%); of the patients in the rectus abdominis. No significant difference was found in the patients\` routine laboratory results and inflammatory markers. CONCLUSION: In the present study, there was no significant association between the levels of inflammatory markers in patients who underwent surgery for subcutaneous endometriosis at different sites and with different symptoms.
