Lotus Endometriosis Institute has expanded its excision surgery services, giving more endometriosis patients access to robotic-assisted, minimally invasive procedures aimed at removing disease at its root.
-- Lotus Endometriosis Institute has announced an expansion of its endometriosis excision surgery services, broadening access to robotic-assisted care for patients throughout California and those traveling from out of state.

Researchers estimate that at least 11 percent of women in the United States, and more than 6.5 million women, have endometriosis, according to the U.S. Office on Women's Health. Lotus Endometriosis Institute has announced its excision surgery services to address this widespread condition, extending specialized surgical care to patients who have not found relief through medication alone.
"Excision surgery removes endometriosis lesions at their root rather than cauterizing the surface, a method known as ablation," explains a Lotus Endometriosis Institute representative. "This approach is considered the gold standard for many patients, particularly those with endometriomas or deep infiltrating disease, and allows tissue to be examined pathologically for accurate diagnosis and staging."
Procedures are typically performed using minimally invasive laparoscopy with robotic assistance, aiming to remove disease thoroughly while protecting the bladder, bowel, ureters, and pelvic nerves.
Most patients return home the same day or after a short hospital stay, with gradual improvement over several weeks depending on the complexity of the surgery and each patient's individual recovery. Many report meaningful improvement in pelvic pain, painful periods, and pain during intercourse, though outcomes vary based on disease location and how long symptoms have been present.
Excision surgery is paired with evaluation and diagnosis, hormonal therapy, pain management, and pelvic floor therapy to support recovery and address symptoms that surgery alone may not resolve. Integrative medicine services, including nutrition and mind-body support, are also available throughout the treatment plan.
