Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependant disease that affects 10 to 15% of women of reproductive age. Its aetiology and molecular mechanisms involved have not yet been fully explored. Endometriosis is defined by the presence of endometrium-li…

BACKGROUND: Thin-section oblique axial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful in staging endometrial and cervical carcinomas but there are no data on its contribution to assessing deep endometriosis. We evaluated the contribution of thi…

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Endometriosis is a frequent gynaecological disorder in young women. Colorectal endometriosis accounts for about 90% of all intestinal locations. The effectiveness of medical therapies is poor, and surgery, including color…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is defined by the presence of endometrium outside the uterus. Changes in the expression of the proto-oncogene c-kit are associated with aggressive behaviour of both benign and malignant tumours, but there are few d…

Endometriosis is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus. Apoptosis, a physiological process by which multicellular organisms eliminate superfluous cells, is altered in tumor tissue. Here we studied the e…

Deep pelvic endometriosis may involve the uterosacral ligaments, the pouch of Douglas, the vagina, the rectum, and occasionally the bladder. Assessment by physical examination is difficult, and imaging techniques are needed to evaluate the …

Endometriosis is subsequent to the ability of endometrial glands to invade normal tissues. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)--enzymes that mediate normal tissue turnover, including endometrial breakdown during menstruation-appear to be invol…

Apoptosis is a physiological process by which multicellular organisms eliminate superfluous cells. Alterations in apoptosis play a key role in tumour development. The objective was to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of p53, p21,…
