Laparotomy surgery for endometriosis, also known as exploratory laparotomy, is a major surgery as it involves anesthesia and a big cut in the belly. This condition comes in case of severe endometriosis as it cannot be treated through a simple laparoscopy. Risks involving the surgery are bleeding, infection, reaction to anesthesia, and poor healing at the incision. Other risks include damage to other abdominal organs during the process and a hernia at the incision site.

Abdominal swelling can go away post endometriosis surgery but you won't get immediate relief as few obvious complications and discomfort after the surgery may take time to go. Once the post-surgical symptoms vanish, you may feel decrease in the abdominal swelling, pelvic pain, and few other signs of endometriosis.

Laparotomy surgery is majorly effective for women having moderate endometriosis. The treatment is as trustable as laproscopy though the procedure is much complex. In 20% to 30% women, endometriosis returns back in about five years of time.

The percentage of women getting pregnant after the endometriosis surgery ranges between 75% to 80%. Most women will become pregnant after the surgery without any health issues or medication. It, however, may happen in some rare cases where medical assistance would be required for carrying pregnancy or some complications may occur while planning a baby. If a woman is facing issue in getting pregnant within six to 12 months after the surgery, it is recommended to go for vitro fertilization.

Endometriosis is not curable. Depending upon the present extent of disease your doctor will decide about surgery and tell you about the chances of pregnancy.
