If endometrial implants are found during laparoscopy, how are they removed?

The surgeon can use different instruments to remove the implants once the endometriosis has been detected. Scissors, burning current forceps or even lasers can be used for greater precision. It will depend on where the endometrial tissue is located and its extent.
