Endometriosis is an under-researched disease, with Aotearoa-specific data severely lacking. Current estimates of parameters such as rates of endometriosis diagnosis, indication for surgery and sites of disease are based on international data. There is currently no published data on endometriosis surgeries in Aotearoa New Zealand. We aimed to describe the laparoscopic surgeries conducted for suspected endometriosis at Te Whatu Ora - Capital and Coast, including the prevalence of endometriosis in this cohort, indication for surgery, symptoms experienced, endometriosis stage and sites involved, number of repeat laparoscopies, and prevalence of endometriosis at repeat surgery. To conduct this retrospective cross-sectional study, data were extracted from Te Whatu Ora - Capital and Coast systems to identify all records indicating surgery for suspected endometriosis during 2018 and 2019. Variables investigated included age, ethnicity, endometriosis diagnosis (International Classification of Diseases-10 Clinical Modification coding), stage of endometriosis, histological report and endometriosis symptoms (pain and/or fertility). There were 436 surgeries for suspected endometriosis performed during 2018 and 2019, and endometriosis was diagnosed in 68.3% of these surgeries. Pacific and Asian people were under-represented in the study cohort compared to the demographics of the hospital catchment area (Pacific: 3.0% vs 8.4%, Asian: 9.9% vs 12.9%). The most common indication for surgery was pain. There were 76 surgeries performed for suspected recurrence of endometriosis, and endometriosis was identified in 55.6% of these. Endometriosis surgeries in this hospital in Aotearoa show similar presentations and surgical findings to international data. Our findings highlight areas requiring more research in an Aotearoa-specific context.
