The surprising disagreement in treatment results obtained by the various authors treating endometriosis is in large part due to differences in the severity of the disease. Only the adoption of a satisfactory staging system allows valid comparison between homogeneous groups of patients. This paper reviews and analyzes the various classifications proposed with the aim of showing the original aspects and the defects that led to the development of new systems including the most recent one published by the American Fertility Society. Devising a classification system presents unexpectedly great problems, but it is essential to be able to compare treatment results.
不同作者治疗子宫内膜异位症所获得的治疗结果存在惊人差异，这在很大程度上是由于疾病严重程度的不同。只有采用令人满意的分期系统，才能在同类患者群体之间进行有效的比较。本文回顾并分析了提出的各种分类方法，目的是展示其原始特点以及导致包括美国生育协会最近公布的系统在内的新系统发展的缺陷。设计一个分类系统存在出人意料的重大问题，但能够比较治疗结果至关重要。
