- Brief Summary
One of the most common post-operative complications of gynaecological surgery, and in particular endometriosis surgery, is the formation of peritoneal adhesions. After laparotomy, it affects up to 90% of patients. Minimally invasive techniques (such as laparoscopy) reduce the risk of adhesion formation, but cannot totally prevent it. Adhesions can lead to chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia, digestive disorders and infertility. Various strategies and devices have been developed to try and limit adhesion formation, but their effectiveness has not been fully proven in the literature. The only real treatment for adhesions is adhesiolysis, although adhesions often reform. The quality of surgery remains the best means of preventing adhesion formation. To reduce the morbidity associated with pelvic adhesions, it is essential to develop alternative, non-invasive, anti-adhesive methods such as manual osteopathic visceral mobilization.

Group Intervention Description Experimental group osteopatic visceral mobilization patients operated for endometriosis with osteopathic visceral mobilization
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Quality of life with the EHP-30 questionnaire score 1 year Percentage change in baseline questionnaire score (EHP-30) between pre-operative visit and 1 year.
The EHP-30 contains 30 items and ranges from 0 (best health) to 100 (worst health). The items in the baseline questionnaire are grouped into 5 main sub-domains: pain, control and powerlessness, emotional well-being, social support and self-image.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method quality of life with score of the questionnaire GIQLI pre-operative, 6 months and 12 months Compare changes in patients' quality of life between the control group and the experimental group with visceral mobilizations
quality of life with score of the questionnaire ICIQ-FLUTS pre-operative, 6 months and 12 months Compare changes in patients' quality of life between the control group and the experimental group with visceral mobilizations
quality of life with score of the questionnaire PCS pre-operative, 6 months and 12 months Compare changes in patients' quality of life between the control group and the experimental group with visceral mobilizations
quality of life with the sub-domains of the EHP-30 questionnaire pre-operative, 6 months and 12 months Compare changes in patients' quality of life between the 2 groups regarding the sub-domains the EHP-30 questionnaire
evaluation of the abdominal flexibility 1 year Evaluation of abdominal flexibility with an EVA scale in the regions: right and left iliac fossa, hypogastrium at one year assessed by an independent osteopath between 0 and 10 (0 corresponding to normal flexibility and 10 to total rigidity).
quality of life with score of the questionnaire FSFI pre-operative, 6 months and 12 months Compare changes in patients' quality of life between the control group and the experimental group with visceral mobilizations
quality of life with score of the questionnaire EHP-30 pre-operative, 6 months and 12 months Compare changes in patients' quality of life between the control group and the experimental group with visceral mobilizations
pelvic pain pre-operative, 6 hours after surgery, 1 day after surgery, 1 month after surgery, 6 months and 12 months Compare pelvic pain between the 2 groups using EVA Scale (Visual Analogic Scale (from 0 : no pain to 10 : worst pain possible)
evaluation of the cicatrisation post operative, 6 months and 12 months Examination of scar appearance by the surgeon : acquired healing, healing in progress or disunion
Use of additional care 1 year Compare the use of additional care between the 2 groups by collecting data on the type of consultations (gynecologist, general practitioner, midwife, pain center doctor, emergency doctor, osteopath, physiotherapist, acupuncturist, magnetizer, hypnotherapist, healer, ...) and the number of visits
consumption of analgesics and hormonal treatment 1 year Compare the consumption of analgesics and hormonal treatment (name and dose of the medication) between the 2 groups
fertility 1 year Achieving pregnancy during the first postoperative year (yes or no)
number of days of sick leave 1 year Compare the number of days of sick leave between the two groups
compare patient profiles using the sub-domains of the EHP-30 questionnaire 1 year In the experimental group, identify patient profiles based on the sub-domains of quality of life assessed during the pre-operative visit, and compare these different groups according to the improvement in patients' post-operative quality of life at one year.
patient compliance 1 year evaluate the impact of compliance of patients in the visceral mobilization group on improved quality of life and abdominal flexibility (by collecting the number of osteopathic self-mobilizations performed each month following surgery and during1 year)
