RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To provide French guidelines for the management of women with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). DESIGN: A consensus committee of 26 experts was formed. A formal conflict-of-interest policy was developed at the beginning of the process and enforced throughout. The entire guidelines process was conducted independently of any industry funding (i.e. pharmaceutical or medical device companies). The authors were advised to follow the rules of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE®) system to guide assessment of quality of evidence. The potential drawbacks of making strong recommendations in the presence of low-quality evidence were emphasized. METHODS: The last guidelines from the Collège National des Gynécologues et Obstétriciens Français on the management of women with AUB were published in 2008. The literature seems now sufficient for an update. The committee studied questions within 7 fields (diagnosis; adolescents; idiopathic AUB; endometrial hyperplasia and polyps; type 0-2 fibroids; type 3 or higher fibroids; and adenomyosis). Each question was formulated in a PICO (Patients, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) format and evidence profiles were compiled. The GRADE® methodology was applied to the literature review and the formulation of recommendations. RESULTS: The experts' synthesis work and the application of the GRADE method resulted in 36 recommendations. Among the formalized recommendations, 19 are strong and 17 weak. No response was found in the literature for 14 questions. We chose to abstain from recommendations rather than providing advice based solely on expert clinical experience. CONCLUSIONS: The 36 recommendations make it possible to specify the diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for various clinical situations practitioners encounter, from the simplest to the most complex.

OBJECTIVES: Patients with very high risk of cancer mutation may decide to undergo prophylactic surgery in order to avoid heavy clinical and radiological monitoring. This is a promising and nonetheless risky surgery because it is a complicated procedure and highly mutilating. Our goal was to improve the practice of this prophylactic surgery, to do so we assessed a postoperative satisfaction survey to cancer-free patients who have undergone this procedure. MATERIAL: Single-center, cross-sectional descriptive study. Assessment of the primary efficacy endpoint using the BREAST-Q questionnaire. These results were compared to a control group representative of our sample of patients, those data came from the scientific literature using a single-sample Student's test. Several multivariate analyzes were also carried out in order to study the influence of certain factors on the patient's satisfaction. RESULTS: The averages obtained in the various questionnaires were 56.06/100 for "Satisfaction with breasts"; 66.94/100 for "Psychosocial well-being"; 50/100 for "Sexual well-being" and 59.22/100 for "Satisfaction with information". Postoperative satisfaction in our sample is comparable to the group control concerning the questionnaire "Satisfaction with breasts" (P=0.37) and "Psychosocial well-being" (P=0.18). Concerning the questionnaire "Sexual well-being" there is a significant statistical difference between our group and the control group (P=0.01). CONCLUSION: The post-operative satisfaction of our operated patients seems to be proportionally similar to the general population who have not undergone breast surgery except on the question of the quality of sexual life. The various analyzes of our study also allowed us to highlight the importance of preoperative information for postoperative well-being.

Émettre des recommandations pour la prise en charge des femmes ayant des ménorragies. Un comité de 26 experts a été constitué. Une politique de déclaration et de suivi des liens d'intérêts a été appliquée et respectée durant tout le processus de réalisation du référentiel. De même, celui-ci n'a bénéficié d'aucun financement provenant d'une entreprise commercialisant un produit de santé (médicament ou dispositif médical). Le comité devait respecter et suivre la méthode GRADE® (Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation) pour évaluer la qualité des données factuelles sur lesquelles étaient fondées les recommandations. Les dernières recommandations du Collège National des Gynécologues et Obstétriciens Français (CNGOF) sur la prise en charge des femmes ayant des ménorragies ont été publiées en 2008. Nous avons souhaité réactualiser ces recommandations selon la méthodologie GRADE® en identifiant 7 champs différents (diagnostic ; adolescente ; ménorragies idiopathiques ; hyperplasie et polype de l'endomètre ; myomes de type 0 à 2 ; myomes de type 3 et plus ; adénomyose). Chaque question a été formulée selon le format PICO (Patients, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome). L'analyse de la littérature et les recommandations ont été formulées selon la méthodologie GRADE. Le travail de synthèse des experts et l'application de la méthode GRADE ont abouti à 36 recommandations. Parmi les recommandations, 19 ont été établies avec un accord fort et 17 avec un accord faible. Il n'a pas été possible de statuer pour 14 questions pour lesquelles nous avons préféré nous abstenir plutôt que de fournir des avis d'experts.Les 36 recommandations ont permis de préciser les stratégies diagnostiques et thérapeutiques des différentes situations cliniques des plus simples au plus complexes rencontrées par le praticien.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the revision of methodology of the clinical practice guidelines (CPG) of the French National College of Gynecologists and Obstetricians (CNGOF). METHOD: Three CPGs were organized in 2020 on the topics of severe preeclampsia, menorrhagia, and prophylactic surgery according to AGREE II (Apraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation). Questions were presented in PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) format and the grading of scientific evidence was based on the GRADE (Grading of Recommendation Assessment, Development and Evaluation) method. RESULTS: All three CPGs groups adhered to this new methodology. However, the presentation of the arguments, the formulation of the recommendations and the development of the GRADE tables were heterogeneous from one group to another. A homogenization of the presentation is proposed, as well as a guide to the critical analysis of the literature to help the experts to rate the evidence. CONCLUSION: Adherence to these quality criteria should make it easier to apply the recommendations at the national level and improve international recognition of the work done by the CNGOF.

BACKGROUND: Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the standard of care for patients diagnosed with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC), a human papillomavirus (HPV)-related cancer that relapses in 30%-60% of patients. This study aimed to (i) design HPV droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) assays for blood detection (including rare genotypes) and (ii) monitor blood HPV circulating tumor DNA (HPV ctDNA) levels during CRT in patients with LACC. METHODS: We analyzed blood and tumor samples from 55 patients with HPV-positive LACC treated by CRT in a retrospective cohort (n = 41) and a prospective cohort (n = 14). HPV-ctDNA detection was carried out by genotype-specific ddPCR. RESULTS: HPV ctDNA was successfully detected in 69% of patients (n = 38/55) before CRT for LACC, including nine patients with a rare genotype. HPV-ctDNA level was correlated with HPV copy number in the tumor (r = 0.41, P < 0.001). HPV-ctDNA positivity for HPV18 (20%, n = 2/10) was significantly lower than for HPV16 (77%, n = 27/35) or other types (90%, n = 9/10, P = 0.002). HPV-ctDNA detection (positive versus negative) before CRT was associated with tumor stage (P = 0.037) and lymph node status (P = 0.02). Taking into account all samples from the end of CRT and during follow-up in the prospective cohort, positive HPV-ctDNA detection was associated with lower disease-free survival (DFS) (P = 0.048) and overall survival (OS) (P = 0.0013). CONCLUSION: This is one of the largest studies to report HPV-ctDNA detection before CRT and showed clearance of HPV ctDNA at the end of treatment in most patients. Residual HPV ctDNA at the end of CRT or during follow-up could help to identify patients more likely to experience subsequent relapse.

INTRODUCTION: The use of new information and communication technologies is one way of better informing the patient. E-health includes telemedicine but also patient information and self-monitoring, or continuous remote monitoring with connected objects and mobile apps. It is in this context that we have developed and designed a digital application, e-consult®, which we use at the François Baclesse center, dedicated to improving information for patients. The objective of this study was to assess the performance of the e-consult® application in current practice, in order to know if the information delivered to patients was better retained with the application. METHODS: We conducted a prospective, single-center study at the Cancer Center François Baclesse. One group was received in consultation with the use of e-consult®, the other without. Following the consultation, the patient was given a questionnaire concerning her illness and a satisfaction questionnaire concerning the application. RESULTS: The average score obtained on the questionnaire in the group having benefited from a consultation with e-consult® (7.12/10) was significantly higher than that obtained in the group having benefited from a consultation without e-consult® (6.4/10) (P=0.0276). CONCLUSION: Our study showed that patients understood better the information transmitted in consultation with the use of e-consult®. In our opinion, this is the only study evaluating an application in consultation. However, our study has several weaknesses, including the lack of randomization, a small number of patient, and unvalidated questionaries. Despite these promising results, more studies with better internal validity are needed. Future research may also study the impact of the application on the doctor-patient relationship.

Canine sarcoptic mange is a highly pruritic and contagious skin disease caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei var. canis. This case series describes the clinical, parasitological, and serological follow-up of a cohort of eight adult Saint Bernard dogs with confirmed sarcoptic mange, treated orally with lotilaner. Dogs were evaluated initially and after 14 days and 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 months for skin lesions, pruritus severity, presence of parasites, and Sarcoptes-IgG levels. A serological indoor allergy panel (IgE) was obtained for seven dogs at day 0 and repeated 12 months later in five dogs to assess potential cross-reactivity between S. scabiei and environmental allergens. Lotilaner was administered to each dog according to the manufacturer's instructions and was repeated after one and two months without any concurrent therapeutic measure or modification of the husbandry conditions. Pruritus ceased after two weeks. The cutaneous score was reduced by 47%, and skin scrapings were negative for all but three animals. All skin scrapings were negative after one month. Lesions were absent after two months. Serological levels decreased gradually, but more slowly than the skin lesions, and two dogs out of six remained positive in the absence of skin lesions or symptoms. All dogs initially tested positive for dust mites and/or storage mites. The IgE titres remained unchanged 12 months later in the five tested dogs. This case report demonstrates the efficacy of lotilaner on scabies in a cohort of infested dogs under natural conditions and the potential antigenic cross-reaction of S. scabiei with house dust and storage mites.
RESUMEN
It is recommended to classify Borderline Ovarian Tumors (BOTs) according to the WHO classification. Transvaginal and suprapubic ultrasonography are recommended for the analysis of an ovarian mass (Grade A). In case of an undetermined ovarian lesion on ultrasonography, it is recommended to perform a pelvic MRI (Grade A) with a score for malignancy (ADNEX MR/O-RADS) (Grade C) included in the report and to formulate a histological hypothesis (Grade C). Pelvic MRI is recommended to characterize a tumor suspected of being BOT (Grade C). It is recommended to evaluate serum levels of HE4 and CA125 and to use the ROMA score for the diagnosis of indeterminate ovarian mass on imaging (grade A). If there is a suspicion of a mucinous BOT on imaging, serum levels of CA 19-9 may be proposed (Grade C). For Early Stages (ES) of BOT, if surgery without risk of tumor rupture is possible, laparoscopy with protected extraction is recommended over laparotomy (Grade C). For treatment of a bilateral serous ES BOT with a strategy to preserve fertility and/or endocrine function, bilateral cystectomy is recommended where possible (Grade B). For mucinous BOTs with a treatment strategy of fertility and/or endocrine function preservation, unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is recommended (grade C). For mucinous BOTs treated by initial cystectomy, unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy is recommended (grade C). For serous or mucinous ES BOTs, routine hysterectomy is not recommended (Grade C). For ES BOTs, lymphadenectomy is not recommended (Grade C). For ES BOTs, appendectomy is recommended only in case of a macroscopically pathological appendix (Grade C). Restaging surgery is recommended in cases of serous BOTs with micropapillary architecture and an incomplete abdominal cavity inspection during initial surgery (Grade C). Restaging surgery is recommended for mucinous BOTs after initial cystectomy or in cases where the appendix was not examined (Grade C). If restaging surgery is decided for ES BOTs, the following procedures should be performed: peritoneal washing (grade C), omentectomy (grade B), complete exploration of the abdominal cavity with peritoneal biopsies (grade C), visualization of the appendix and appendectomy in case of a pathological macroscopic appearance (grade C) as well as unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in case of a mucinous BOT initially treated by cystectomy (grade C). In advanced stages (AS) of BOT, it is not recommended to perform a lymphadenectomy as a routine procedure (Grade C). For AS BOT in a patient with a desire to fall pregnant, conservative treatment involving preservation of the uterus and all or part of the ovary may be proposed (Grade C). Restaging surgery aimed at removing all lesions, not performed initially, is recommended for AS BOTs (Grade C). After treatment, follow-up for a duration greater than 5 years is recommended due to the median recurrence time of BOTs (Grade B). It is recommended that a systematic clinical examination be carried out during follow-up of a treated BOT (Grade B). If the determination of tumor markers is normal preoperatively, the routine dosage of tumor markers in BOT follow-up is not recommended (Grade C). In case of an initial elevation in serum CA 125 levels, it is recommended to monitor CA 125 during follow up (Grade B). In case of conservative treatment, it is recommended to use transvaginal and transabdominal ultrasound during follow up of a treated BOT (Grade B). In the event of a BOT recurrence in a woman of childbearing age, a second conservative treatment may be proposed (Grade C). A consultation with a physician specialized in Assisted Reproductive Technique (ART) should be offered in the case of BOTs in women of childbearing age (Grade C). When possible, a conservative surgical strategy is recommended to preserve fertility in women of childbearing age (Grade C). In the case of optimally treated BOT, there is no evidence to contraindicate the use of ART. The use of hormonal contraception after serous or mucinous BOT is not contraindicated (Grade C). After management of mucinous BOT, for women under 45 years, given the benefit of Hormonal Replacement Therapy (HRT) on cardiovascular and bone risks, and the lack of hormone sensitivity of mucinous BOTs, it is recommended to offer HRT (Grade C). Over 45 years of age, HRT can be prescribed in case of a climacteric syndrome after individual benefit to risk assessment (Grade C).

Antibiotic prophylaxis is not recommended during surgical induced abortions. Systematic screening for Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrheae infection by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on a vaginal sample is recommended before any surgical abortion. Moreover, the bacteriological result should be available before the abortion so that antibiotic treatment effective against the identified bacteria, if any, can be proposed before the procedure. The absence of bacteriological result on the day of the abortion must not, however, delay the procedure. If screening is positive for a sexually transmitted infection (STI), and the bacteriological result is only available after the abortion, it is recommended that antibiotic treatment start as soon as possible. The first-line antibiotic treatment is ceftriaxone 500mg in a single dose by the intramuscular route for N. gonorrheae, doxycycline 200mg per day orally for 7 days for C. trachomatis and azithromycin 500mg the first day (D1) then 250mg per day from D2 to D4 orally if Mycoplasma genitalium is detected by multiplex PCR. In case of positive screening, antibiotic treatment of the woman's partner(s) is recommended, adapted to the STI agent(s).

OBJECTIVES: Ovarian borderline tumors (OBT) represent a heterogeneous group of lesions with specific management for each histological subtype. Thus, the correct histological diagnosis is mandatory. MATERIAL AND METHODS: References were searched by PubMed from January 2000 to January 2018 and original articles in French and English literature were selected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: OBT should be classified according to the last WHO classification. Any micro-invasion (foci<5mm) or microcarcinoma (foci<5mm with nuclear atypia and desmoplastic stromal reaction) should be indicated in the pathology report. In case of serous OBT, variants (classical or the micropapillary/cribriform) should be indicated (grade C). The peritoneal implants associated with OBT, should be classified as invasive or noninvasive, according to the extension into the underlying adipous tissue. If no adipous tissue is seen the term undetermined should be used (grade B). In case of mucinous OBT bilateral and/or with peritoneal implants or peritoneal pseudomyxoma a search for primitive gastrointestinal, appendiceal or biliopancreatic tumor should be performed (grade C). In case of OBT, a thorough sampling of the tumor is recommended, with 1 block/cm and 2 blocks/cm in case of mucinous OBT, serous OBT micropapillary variant, OBT with intraepithelial carcinoma or/and micro-invasion. Peritoneal implants should be examined in toto. Omentum without macroscopic lesion should be sampled in 4 to 6 blocks (grade C). In case of ovarian cyst suspicious for OBT, fine needle aspiration is not recommended (grade C). In case of ovarian tumor suspicious for OBT, intraoperative examination should be performed by a gynecological pathologist (grade C).

This work was carried out under the aegis of the CNGOF (Collège national des gynécologues et obstétriciens français) and proposes guidelines based on the evidence available in the literature. The objective was to define the diagnostic and surgical management strategy, the fertility preservation and surveillance strategy in Borderline Ovarian Tumor (BOT). No screening modality can be proposed in the general population. An expert pathological review is recommended in case of doubt concerning the borderline nature, the histological subtype, the invasive nature of the implant, for all micropapillary/cribriform serous BOT or in the presence of peritoneal implants, and for all mucinous or clear cell tumors (grade C). Macroscopic MRI analysis should be performed to differentiate the different subtypes of BOT: serous, seromucinous and mucinous (intestinal type) (grade C). If preoperative biomarkers are normal, follow up of biomarkers is not recommended (grade C). In cases of bilateral early serous BOT with a desire to preserve fertility and/or endocrine function, it is recommended to perform a bilateral cystectomy if possible (grade B). In case of early mucinous BOT, with a desire to preserve fertility and/or endocrine function, it is recommended to perform a unilateral adnexectomy (grade C). Secondary surgical staging is recommended in case of serous BOT with micropapillary appearance and uncomplete inspection of the abdominal cavity during initial surgery (grade C). For early-stage serous or mucinous BOT, it is not recommended to perform a systematic hysterectomy (grade C). Follow up after BOT must be pursued for more than 5 years (grade B). Conservative treatment involving at least the conservation of the uterus and a fragment of the ovary in a patient wishing to conceive may be proposed in advanced stages of BOT (grade C). A new surgical treatment that preserves fertility after a first non-invasive recurrence may be proposed in women of childbearing age (grade C). It is recommended to offer a specialized consultation for Reproductive Medicine when diagnosing BOT in a woman of childbearing age. Hormonal contraceptive use after serous or mucinous BOT is not contraindicated (grade C).

The effects of maternal nutrition on offspring phenotypes have been mainly documented over the past years in mammals, and are now studied in poultry as well. In the present study, we investigated the effects of a reduced level of dietary Methionine (Met) on laying performances of common laying ducks and their impacts on the phenotype of their mule ducklings. A total of 60 female laying ducks were divided into 2 dietary treatments at 10 wk of age. The restricted group received Met-restricted diets (R group) containing 0.25% of Met whereas the control group received control diets (C group) containing 0.40% of Met that meets Met requirements. The restriction was applied during the growing and laying periods, from 10 to 51 wk of age and a particular focus was put on female breeder traits that might be affected by the Met restriction. Plasma parameters of hepatic and lipid metabolisms were recorded in ducklings. Total weight (P < 0.001), albumen weight (P < 0.001) and albumen percentage of dry matter (P < 0.01) were decreased for eggs laid by female breeders from the R group. Both male and female ducklings from the R group of female breeders showed a reduced BW at hatching (P < 0.001) and a tendency to an increased proportional liver weight (P = 0.07). Finally, the maternal low dietary Met level modified plasma parameters in newborn ducklings regardless of sex: alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alanine transaminase (ALT) activities were reduced (P = 0.07 and P = 0.002, respectively), levels of glucose (P = 0.03) and triglycerides (P = 0.01) were higher whereas level of free fatty acids decreased (P = 0.01). It was concluded that feeding female laying ducks with a restricted dietary Met content during the growing and laying periods has a negative effect on egg weight and composition. The ducklings that were restricted in nutrients during their early development, have a reduced BW, and altered lipid and hepatic metabolisms.

OBJECTIVES: To provide up-to-date guidelines on management of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). METHODS: An initial search of the Cochrane database, PubMed, and Embase was performed using keywords related to PID to identify reports in any language published between January 1990 and January 2012, with an update in 2018. All identified reports published in French and English relevant to the areas of focus were included. A level of evidence based on the quality of the data available was applied for each area of focus and used for the guidelines. RESULTS: PID must be suspected when spontaneous pelvic pain is associated with induced adnexal or uterine pain (grade B). Pelvic ultrasonography is necessary to exclude tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA) (grade C). Microbiological diagnosis requires endocervical and TOA sampling for molecular and bacteriological analysis (grade B). First-line treatment for uncomplicated PID combines ceftriaxone 1g, once, by intra-muscular (IM) or intra-venous (IV) route, doxycycline 100mg×2/d, and metronidazole 500mg×2/d oral (PO) for 10 days (grade A). First-line treatment for complicated PID combines IV ceftriaxone 1 to 2g/d until clinical improvement, doxycycline 100mg×2/d, IV or PO, and metronidazole 500mg×3/d, IV or PO for 14days (grade B). Drainage of TOA is indicated if the collection measures more than 3cm (grade B). Follow-up is required in women with sexually transmitted infections (STI) (grade C). The use of condoms is recommended (grade B). Vaginal sampling for microbiological diagnosis is recommended 3 to 6months after PID (grade C), before the insertion of an intra-uterine device (grade B), before elective termination of pregnancy or hysterosalpingography. Targeted antibiotics on identified bacteria are better than systematic antibioprophylaxis in those conditions. CONCLUSIONS: Current management of PID requires easily reproducible investigations and antibiotics adapted to STI and vaginal microbiota.

OBJECTIVES: To determine the procedures for follow-up and counselling of patients after pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). METHODS: A search in the Cochrane database, PubMed, and Google was performed using keywords related to follow-up and PID to identify reports published between 1990 and 2018. All studies published in French and English relevant to the areas of focus were included. A level of evidence (LE) based on the quality of the data available was applied for each area of focus and used for the guidelines. RESULTS: The rate of recurrent PID is 15 to 21%. They are related to a recurrent sexually transmitted infection (STI) in 20 to 34% of cases. Recurrence PID increase the risk of infertility and chronic pelvic pain (LE2). Follow-up is recommended after PID (grade C). The rate of patients lost to follow-up is around 40%. Follow-up is improved by personalized text message reminders (grade B). Vaginal sampling for detection of N. gonorrhoeae, C. trachomatis, (and M. genitalium) by nucleic acid amplification techniques is recommended 3 to 6 months after treatment of PID associated with STI to rule out possible reinfections (grade C). The use of condoms after PID associated with STI is recommended to reduce the risk of recurrences (grade C). The systematic use of contraceptive pills after PID is not recommended to prevent subsequent infertility and chronic pelvic pain. Vaginal sampling for microbiological diagnosis is recommended before the insertion of an intrauterine device (grade B). The risk of ectopic pregnancy is high in these women and must be kept in mind. CONCLUSION: Patient counselling and microbiological testing after PID decrease the risk of STI and thus the recurrence of PID.

OBJECTIVE: Minimally invasive surgery is a technique frequently used in gynecologic surgery. The robot-assisted surgery is a recent approach, and the benefits are not yet proven. The objective of this study was to evaluate the feasibility to use robot-assisted surgery for obese patient with endometrial cancer. METHODS: All patients undergoing a robotic surgery for uterus malignant indication between March 2013 and May 2016 in our center were retrospectively included. Patients were divided in two groups, according to their body mass index (BMI). The group with BMI<30kg/m2 was the reference for this comparative study. The main criteria was the robot operative time. The other criteria were total operating time, hospital stay and intraoperative and postoperative complications. RESULTS: Seventy-seven patients met inclusion criteria for analysis. The median robot operative time was 110minutes for all patients [21-341], without difference between the five groups (P=0.60). There was no difference for the total operative time (P=0.50). The median hospital stay was 3 days (P=0.92). There were ten intraoperative complications. One patient had a conversion (1.3%). There was no statistical difference for postoperative complications (P=1). CONCLUSION: Our study found few differences in the surgical management by laparoscopic robot-assisted between obese and non obese women. Robot-assisted surgery seems to be feasible for uterine cancer treatment of obese patients. Prospective and randomized studies are needed to assess the benefit of the robotic surgery.

Endometriosis is a common condition that causes pain and infertility. It can lead to absenteeism and also to multiple surgeries with a consequent risk of impaired fertility, and constitutes a major public health cost. Despite the existence of numerous national and international guidelines, the management of endometriosis remains suboptimal. To address this issue, the French College of Gynaecologists and Obstetricians (CNGOF) and the Society of Gynaecological and Pelvic Surgery (SCGP) convened a committee of experts tasked with defining the criteria for establishing a system of care networks, headed by Expert Centres, covering all of mainland France and its overseas territories. This document sets out the criteria for the designation of Expert Centres. It will serve as a guide for the authorities concerned, to ensure that the means are provided to adequately manage patients with endometriosis.

OBJECTIVES: The Collège national des gynécologues obstétriciens français (CNGOF), in agreement with the Société de chirurgie gynécologique et pelvienne (SCGP), has set up a commission in 2017 to define endometriosis expert centres, with the aim of optimizing endometriosis care in France. METHODS: The committee included members from university and general hospitals as well as private facilities, representing medical, surgical and radiological aspects of endometriosis care. Opinion of endometriosis patients' associations was obtained prior to writing this work. The final text was presented and unanimously validated by the members of the CNGOF Board of Directors at its meeting of October 13, 2017. RESULTS: Based on analysis of current management of endometriosis and the last ten years opportunities in France, the committee has been able to define the contours of endometriosis expert centres. The objectives, production specifications, mode of operation, missions and funding for these centres were described. The following missions have been specifically defined: territorial organization, global and referral care, communication and teaching as well as research and evaluation. CONCLUSION: Because of its daily impact for women and its economic burden in France, endometriosis justifies launching of expert centres throughout the country with formal accreditation by health authorities, ideally as part of the National Health Plan.
