The greatest change has been in the case of “subtle” lesions, which increased from 15% in 1986 to 65% in 1988. The diagnosis of peritoneal endometriosis at the time of laparoscopy is often made by the observation of typically puckered black or bluish lesions. There are, in addition, numerous subtle appearances of peritoneal endometriosis.\nThese lesions, frequently nonpigmented, were diagnosed as endometriosis following confirmation by biopsy by Jansen and Russell in 1986.\nDisciplines :\nReproductive medicine (gynecology, andrology, obstetrics)\nDonnez, Jacques\nNISOLLE, Michelle ; Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Liège - CHU > Gynécologie-Obstétrique CHR\nCasanas-Roux, Françoise\nLanguage :\nEnglish\nTitle :\nPeritoneal endometriosis: two-dimensional and three-dimensional evaluation of typical and subtle lesions.\nPublication date :\n1994\nJournal title :\nAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences\nISSN :\n0077-8923\neISSN :\n1749-6632\nPublisher :\nNew York Academy of Sciences, New York, United States - New York\nVolume :\n734\nPeer reviewed :\nPeer Reviewed verified by ORBi\nAvailable on ORBi :\nsince 16 November 2011\nScopus citations®\n11\nScopus citations®\nwithout self-citations\nwithout self-citations\n8\nOpenCitations\n5\nOpenAlex citations\n9\n- Bergqvist A., Rannevik G., Thorell J.
