Abstract Background: To evaluate the influence of the location of endometrioma (right vs. left ovary) on endometriosis severity, we compared the revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) scores determined by laparoscopic sur…
Abstract Background: We compared the revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) scores determined during laparoscopic surgery to evaluate the effect of the location of the endometrioma (right vs. left ovary) on the severity o…
BACKGROUND: To determine the prevalence of and risk factors for malignant transformation of ovarian endometrioma during dienogest therapy, which is very rare, we examined multiple cases of malignant transformation of ovarian endometrioma du…
In order to diagnose endometrial cancer preoperatively, outpatient endometrial biopsy with a curette is frequently performed owing to its convenience. However, in some cases, gynecologists fail to diagnose endometrial cancer via outpatient …
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the potential impact of adenomyosis on the pregnancy outcomes by retrospectively investigating adenomyosis-complicated pregnancy cases. METHODS: We performed a retrospective case-control study. Forty-nine singleton pr…
Objective: To evaluate the potential impact of adenomyosis on the pregnancy outcomes by retrospectively investigating adenomyosis-complicated pregnancy cases. Methods: We performed a retrospective case–control study. Forty-nine singleton pr…
AIM: The aim of this study was to identify predictive factors for emergent surgical interventions in patients with ovarian endometriomas hospitalized for pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). METHODS: We retrospectively identified 22 patients …
In an animal endometriosis model, the administration of hyaluronic acid (HA) reagent significantly suppressed the formation of endometriotic lesions in both number and weight. This effect was found when HA treatment was conducted at the tim…
PROBLEM: Endometriosis accompanies local inflammatory reactions in the peritoneal cavity. We examined the phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), i.e. extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), p38 MAPK (p38) and c-J…
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the usefulness of transvaginal and transrectal ultrasonography for diagnosis and management of deeply infiltrating rectosigmoid endometriosis. METHODS: A series of six patients (aged 32-39 years) with rectosigmoid e…
Using a cDNA microarray consisting of 23,040 genes, we analyzed gene-expression profiles of ovarian endometrial cysts from 23 patients in order to identify genes involved in endometriosis. By comparing expression patterns between endometrio…
The incidence of the hepatic damage during treatment with danazol (D), indicated by increased serum GOT, GPT and LDH levels, has been shown to be high especially in Japan. Thus, the preventive effect of the traditional herbal medicine, shos…
In order to investigate the effect of Danazol (D) on serum prolactin (PRL) and cortisol levels, D was given orally in a daily dose of 400 mg for 2 weeks to 4 women (400 mg group) and 600 mg to 5 women (600 mg group) at one month and more af…
