Discussion In this comprehensive assessment of endometriosis lesion characteristics in relation to circulating inflammatory biomarkers among 566 participants with surgically visualized endometriosis from three studies, we observed nominally significant variation in circulating inflammatory markers by lesion color, vascularity, and location but not significant after accounting for multiple testing and no significant associations between circulating inflammatory markers and rASRM stage or macrophenotype (superficial, endometrioma, deep), which could be due to small sample sizes for non-superficial peritoneal lesions.
