Although many series have been published on the management of digestive or urinary deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE), few data exist on pre- and postoperative urinary dysfunction (UD) and urodynamic tests. Hence, the objective of this r…

The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality of life (QOL) of patients with deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) using EuroQOL (EQ-5D) and its correlation with symptoms and locations of endometriotic lesions. One hundred and fif…

AIM: To evaluate image quality and diagnostic accuracy of two- (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the evaluation of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred and…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate urologic complications after colorectal resection for endometriosis. DESIGN: Cohort study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). SETTING: Tertiary referral university hospital and expert center in endometr…

Colorectal surgery for endometriosis is increasingly performed, but its assessment is still incomplete, especially regarding its impact on quality of life, the recurrence rate and subsequent fertility. Segmental resection is the technique m…

STUDY QUESTION: What is the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of parametrial endometriosis in comparison with surgicopathological findings? SUMMARY ANSWER: MRI displayed an accuracy of 96.4% in the preoperative …

Poster: ECR 2011 / C-2243 / Comparison of 3D and 2D FSE T2-weighted MR imaging in the diagnosis of pelvic endometriosis: preliminary results by: M. Bazot 1, A. stivalet2, I. Thomassin-Naggara1, E. Darai1, C. Coudray1, E. Poncelet3; 1Paris…

OBJECTIVES: To determine the value of postcontrast MR imaging (MRI) in cases of suspected pelvic endometriosis by assessing interobserver variability of MR imaging according to the endometriotic locations. METHODS: This retrospective study…

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the surgical route of colorectal resection for endometriosis is a determinant factor for fertility. DESIGN: Prospective study. SETTING: Tertiary-care university hospital. PATIENT(S): Fifty-two patients wit…

A specific statistical tool (the cumulative summation test for learning curve or LC-CUSUM) was used to monitor the learning curve of four trainees for the diagnosis of endometriomas by transvaginal ultrasound. A large intertrainee variabili…

To define the sonographic morphological description and localization of deep endometriosis in a preliminary consensus statement. After a preliminary request of participation, we received several suggestions from participants about definitio…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate urinary symptoms before and after colorectal resection for endometriosis using validated questionnaires. STUDY DESIGN: We randomly assigned 52 patients with colorectal endometriosis to undergo laparoscopically assist…

OBJECTIVE: The aims of this prospective study were to evaluate fertility, pregnancy outcomes and their determinant factors after laparoscopic segmental colorectal resection for endometriosis. STUDY DESIGN: We studied 83 women who underwent…

Purpose: To prospectively evaluate the ability of dynamic con- trast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) to assess phys- iological microvascular states in nor- mal myometrium. Materials and methods: Eighty-five women (62 women of …

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…

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To estimate the association between urinary symptoms and quality of life in patients with posterior deep-infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) with anatomical locations of endometriosis. DESIGN: Prospective nonrandomized study …

This retrospective study of women undergoing IVF (29 with colorectal endometriosis, 157 with tubal factor infertility, and 340 with male factor infertility) found similar fertility outcomes between the groups.

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…
