Abstract: Objective To analyze the relationship between aromatase (CYP19) gene polymorphism and recurrence of endometriosis (EMs) after surgery. Methods The clinical data of 110 patients with EMs who underwent the operation in our hospital from February 2019 to February 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into non-relapsing group (62 cases) and relapsing group (48 cases) by 12 months followed-up outcomes. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of 115T/C, 240A/G and 1531C/T sites of CYP19 gene were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), and the differences of VAS and r-AFS scores between the two groups were analyzed. Results The genotypes and allele frequencies of 115T/C and 1531C/T of CYP19 gene in relapsing group were not significantly different from those in non-relapsing group (P>0.05). The AG genotype frequency of 240A/G site of CYP19 gene in relapsing group was higher than that in non-relapsing group (P<0.05), while the AA genotype frequency was significantly lower than that in non-relapsing group (P<0.05). There were significant differences in the allele frequencies of 240A/G site (P<0.05). The scores of VAS and r-AFS of AG＞GG＞AA, with significant differences (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the VAS and r-AFS scores of CYP19 gene at 115T/C and 1531C/T site (P>0.05). Conclusion The 240A/G polymorphism of the CYP19 gene is closely related to postoperative recurrence, pain degree and condition of EMs, and the genotypes carrying the G allele (AG+GG) may be the risk factor of postoperative recurrence.
