First described via microscopic observation by Karl von Rokitansky in 1860, symptoms of endometriosis have been noted in medical texts for thousands of years 1, 2.
The average gap from the onset of symptoms to the
diagnosis of endometriosis is between 3 and 11 years 3.

The prevalence of endometriosis is approximately 10-20% among women of reproductive age, and it is 2-5 times higher in women with infertility.1
The need for subsequent surgery after the initial
conservative surgical treatment for endometriosis was 21.6%, 46.7%, and 55.4% at 2, 5, and 7 years after the previous surgery, respectively.1

A higher recurrence rate is reported in younger patients, in those with an advanced disease stage1,2,3, and in patients who underwent incomplete removal of endometriotic lesions 3, 4.
Even after complete resection, endometriosis typically recurs and medical treatment should be used to prevent future disease5.

However, prognosis and pathogenesis of recurrence of endometrioma are still not fully understood. So far as, we still have not known much about changes occurred in basalis cells of eutopic and ectopic epithelium of endometrial type in patients with endometriosis.
Samples were obtained from 46 women with primary endometriomas and 15 with recurrence cysts
Thickness of slices was 4 mm. The resulting sections were stained in the usual manner with hematoxylin-eosin and subjected to optical microscopy using immersion objective with a total optical power 10 x 100.
The aim of this study was to examine proliferative activities of ectopic endometrial cells in primary and recurrent endometriomas.
Data are presented as the mean ± standart deviation and were analyzed by the Pearson nonparametric correlation to indicate statistical differences between ectopical endometrial cells of primary and recurrence cysts.
Studied parameters:
• The thickness of the gland • The core area • The thickness of the cytoplasmic membrane • The thickness of the nuclear membrane • The thickness of the secretory parts of the cell • Radius of the nucleus • Average brightness • The average density of the nucleus

Conclusion __________________________________________________________________________
Almost all parameters increasing in the primary cysts may sign more active proliferation in primary cysts in comparison with recurrent cyst. The thickness of all membrane was larger in primary cysts compared with recurrent cysts, maybe because of quantity of specific and nonspecific receptors located in membranes.
Liu et al reported that recurrence rates are largely stable for up to 30 months after surgery and decrease thereafter1.
According opinion of Ouchi et al, there is a
consistent increase for 5 years, followed by a 0% recurrence rate after 5 years 2.

Aim of future investigation
To study specific and nonspecific receptors located
in nuclear and cytoplasmic membranes. To examine proliferative activities of eutopic
endometrial cells with study of morphometric characteristics and compare with ectopic endometrial cells in groups of the women with primary and recurrent endometriomas.
