Comparison of the total nerve fiber density (NFD, NF/mm2) of endometriosis-associated nerve of peritoneal endometriosis (EAN-PEM), NFD of para-endometriotic nerve of peritoneal endometriosis (PEN-PEM) and NFD of nerve of peritoneum of control (N-PC). (B) Sympathetic nerve fibers were positively stained by Anti-TH antibody.
