Presence of embryo-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in spent culture medium (SCM) represents a promising non-invasive alternative to the conventional preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). The present study evaluated the feasibility of using c…
Bowel endometriosis is often considered an indication for extensive surgical management, including colorectal resection, in women undergoing surgery for concomitant endometriosis at other sites. However, several contemporary studies show li…
The study aimed to evaluate whether there is a difference in the expression of programmed cell death 1 ligand (PD-L1) in the cell lining of endometrioma between cases with and without recurrent disease. Additionally, we sought to assess the…
OBJECTIVE: This study focuses on evaluating the effectiveness, safety and efficacy of 2 surgical tissue extraction methods for treating bowel endometriosis: natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) and minilaparotomy. DATA SOURCES: A sys…
OBJECTIVE: Oocyte donation (OD) cycles have been used extensively over the last decades due to high success regarding live birth rate (LBR). We evaluated the reproductive outcomes of fresh and vitrified sibling oocytes in terms of fertiliza…
PURPOSE: To evaluate the relationship of clinical pregnancy rates with bone morphogenetic proteins 2-4-7 (BMP 2, 4, 7), growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF 9), and Emmprin levels in follicular fluid of intracytoplasmic sperm injection pati…
Endometriosis is a condition in which the endometrium, the layer of tissue that usually covers the inside of the uterus, grows outside the uterus. One of its severe effects is sub-fertility. The exact reason for endometriosis is still unkno…
OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the immunohistochemical (IHC) differences of endometrioma tissues that may have the potential to progress to ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) by using KRAS, HNF1β, PIK3CA, PPP2R1A, and ARID1A as biomarkers. STUDY…
AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate ovarian reserve after laparoscopic ovarian detorsion in patients with ovarian torsion. METHODS: From February 2014 to September 2015, a total of 11 patients with ovarian torsion underwent laparosc…
OBJECTIVE: To see whether the oocytes retrieved from an ovary with an endometrioma would develop into embryos with aberrant timings of cleavage as assessed using time-lapse monitoring (TLM) and poorer morphologic quality compared with sibli…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare the in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes of long gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) and GnRH-antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocols in endometriosis patients who have un…
