Chapter 1 1.1 Chapter 1 13.2.2Ce// actf?es/on mo/eci//es Adhesive properties of endometrial cells determine the process of attachment of retrogradely shed endometrium to the peritoneal lining.Several cell adhesion molecules are expressed by…
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have indicated new physiological roles for erythropoietin (Epo) unrelated to erythropoiesis. We previously demonstrated that the Epo concentrations in peritoneal fluid from patients with stage I endometriosis were…
The laparoscopic management of ovarian endometrioma was reported more than 15 years ago. An anonymous survey conducted among gynaecologists in the UK showed that 50% of ovarian endometrioma are still managed by laparotomy. This surprising r…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian response during IVF cycles after laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy for endometriotic cysts >3 cm is controversial. A retrospective study was designed to study this problem. METHODS: At laparoscopy, endometriomas >3 cm were…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the degree of fibrosis in the stroma of peritoneal endometriosis, according to the macroscopic appearance. METHODS: Red and black lesions of peritoneal endometriosis were collected and type-I collagen was immunohistoc…
The relative frequencies of the normal (+) and null (0) alleles of the glutathione-S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) gene, as well as those of the rapid (R) and slow (S) forms of N-acetyl transferase 2 (NAT-2), were studied in the Russian and French…
We evaluated angiogenesis in eutopic endometrium and ectopic endometrium from patients with endometriosis. Microvessels were identified by immunohistochemistry using anti-von-Willebrand factor antibody and vascular parameters were measured …
PROBLEM: Factors regulating fibrosis in peritoneal endometriosis are poorly understood. We hypothesized that mast cell proteases may play a role in the process of fibrosis in peritoneal endometriosis. As the first step in examining the poss…
From January 1989 to December 1990, 196 patients were treated by hysteroscopic endometrial resection for abnormal uterine bleeding. A survey in February 1993 revealed a satisfaction rate of 82%. Persistence of abnormal bleeding after resect…
Laparoscopic hysterectomy is a recent procedure. We present our preliminary results about 44 patients. In 77.3% of cases (34 patients) the operation was carried out completely by laparoscopy and 10 patients (22.7%) required conversion of th…
One case of unicornuate uterus with a cavitary rudimentary horn and unilateral extensive endometriosis was treated by laparoscopy, after three months of treatment with GnRH analogues. The rudimentary horn and the corresponding tube were rem…
Adequate management of endometriosis by laparoscopy included 3 steps: a laparoscopic diagnosis with peritoneal fluid sampling for cytologic examination and biopsies of implants and of peritoneum to assure a correct diagnosis, a laparoscopic…
