ENDOMETRIOSIS
Our medical team covers an extensive range of specialties, providing patients with modern, personalized care based on the latest medical standards.
Modern treatment of endometriosis
Endometriosis is a complex condition that can cause pelvic pain, infertility, and recurrent discomfort. Correct diagnosis and a multidisciplinary approach are essential to reduce symptoms, improve quality of life, and restore reproductive health.
Multidisciplinary approach to endometriosis at Metropolitan Hospital
Endometriosis is a complex and often underdiagnosed gynecological disease, in which endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus, causing inflammation, pelvic pain, digestive or urinary disorders and, in many cases, difficulty conceiving. For many patients, the correct diagnosis is delayed for years, and the treatment applied does not reflect the true severity or extent of the disease. Metropolitan Hospital has become a reference center in the treatment of endometriosis through international expertise, interdisciplinary collaboration and minimally invasive surgical techniques.
Treatment coordination is carried out by Prof. Dr. Jörg Bernhard Engel, a university professor with over 25 years of experience in gynecological and oncological surgery, trained in top university centers in Germany. Considered a European benchmark in the treatment of endometriosis, Prof. Dr. Engel comes specifically to Romania to treat moderate and severe cases, using the same modern laparoscopic protocols and techniques applied in major German medical centers. His expertise in deeply infiltrative endometriosis, fertility preservation and reproductive surgery offers patients precise and safe solutions, adapted to the stage of the disease.
The interventions are carried out together with a dedicated multidisciplinary team:
– Dr. Eva Velten, gynecologist specialized in oncological surgery;
– Dr. Madalina Popescu, specialist in obstetrics-gynecology with a specialization in infertility;
– Dr. Octavian Popescu, a general surgeon with expertise in oncological, colorectal and proctology surgery — essential in cases of endometriosis with intestinal involvement.
For complex cases, Metropolitan Hospital hosts International Commission on the Treatment of Endometriosis, which analyzes each medical file and establishes the optimal strategy: drug treatment, advanced laparoscopic intervention, combined approaches or assisted reproduction solutions.
Patient evaluation includes specialized gynecological consultation, transvaginal ultrasound, pelvic MRI for lesion mapping, and, if necessary, diagnostic laparoscopy. Treatment is personalized, focused on reducing pain, limiting recurrence, protecting fertility, and improving quality of life, with long-term monitoring and constant support.
