The (Cost-)Effectiveness of Surgical Excision of Colorectal Endometriosis Compared to ART Treatment Trajectory (TOSCA)
To goal of this study is to determine whether laparoscopic resection of colorectal endometriosis results in an increased cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) both spontaneous and after ART (including in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), and better patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) compared to an IVF/ICSI treatment trajectory.

Interventions
- Laparoscopic excision of endometriosis, including colorectal endometriosis

- Cumulative live birth rate — At the end of the study period (live birth or after 3 IVF/ICSI attempts and/or surgery in the follow-up period (40 months) )
