Dr. Abhishek Mangeshikar shares critical insights on evaluating surgeon skill and the importance of comprehensive treatment for endometriosis. His expertise reveals that clean, meticulous surgical technique with respect for tissue significantly improves outcomes and reduces post-operative adhesions.

• Red flag if surgeon plans to "just remove the cyst" in a quick procedure
• Endometriosis cysts never exist as single entities—always accompanied by other disease
• Proper imaging should identify connections to surrounding structures
• Wait at least six months for post-operative imaging due to healing processes
• Original surgeon should review follow-up imaging to distinguish between fibrosis and disease
• Clean surgical technique with minimal bleeding significantly reduces adhesion formation
• "Tissue respect" approach leads to better outcomes than aggressive dissection
• Different bodies heal differently, affecting individual adhesion formation
