Abstract Deep pelvic endometriosis is defined as subperitoneal infiltration of endometrial implants in the uterosacral ligaments, rectum, rectovaginal septum, vagina, or bladder. Although laparoscopy and biopsy remain the gold standard for …
BACKGROUND: The aim was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal tenderness-guided ultrasonography in the identification of location of deep endometriosis. METHODS: Consecutive women scheduled for surgery in our Department for cl…
To evaluate the role of transvaginal ultrasonography in the detection of pelvic adhesions in women suspected to have endometriomas. Ninety-seven women who underwent surgery for cystic ovarian endometriosis were prospectively recruited. All …
Extrauterine pelvic diseases include several kinds of adnexal masses. In addition, pelvic adhesions and deep endometriosis can be considered extrauterine pelvic diseases. In this article we will review a practical approach to adnexal pathol…
To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal tenderness-guided ultrasonography in the identification of location of deep endometriotic implants. Sixty-five patients suspected to have deep pelvic endometriosis with or without infertil…
The aim of our study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal tenderness-guided ultrasonography and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in identification of the location of deep endometriosis implants. The study was perfor…
The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of transvaginal ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with an adnexal mass at high risk of ovarian endometriosis owing to the presence of chronic pelvic …
To evaluate the intraobserver and interobserver agreement for identifying different kinds of benign cysts using typical B-mode ultrasonographic patterns, and to perform an external validation of the proposed ultrasonographic patterns. Digit…
To determine the accuracy of transvaginal sonography in the diagnosis of deep endometriosis of the cul-de-sac, retrocervical region and rectovaginal septum using a modified and ‘tenderness-guided’ approach. In a prospective study 30 women s…
