About this study

The purpose of this study is to characterize the recovery and symptom relief following cryoablation of abdominal wall endometriosis. Patients undergoing clinically indicated ablation of abdominal wall endometriosis will receive an endometriosis-specific symptom survey (Endometriosis Health Profile - 30) prior to ablation and then at 3-, 6-, 12-, and 24-months following treatment. A 2 question survey related to pain at the treatment site will also be administered prior to ablation and then at 1-, 7-, and 30-days after ablation.
