Endometriosis, a prevalent but debilitating condition affecting women, poses significant challenges in diagnosis and management. The current 2024 guideline, developed by the Korean Society of Endometriosis (KSE), builds upon the 2018 KSE gu…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common cause of infertility in women of reproductive age, and many affected women require assisted reproductive technology (ART) to conceive. It is also associated with increased risks of adverse obstetric com…
Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a frequently used plasticizer that may be linked to the development of endometriosis, a common gynecological disorder with a profound impact on quality of life. Despite its prevalence, vital access to t…
The present study focused on the degree of tissue injury following single-port laparoscopic surgery (SPLS) and multiport laparoscopic surgery (MPLS) for the treatment of various benign gynecologic diseases. A total of 228 patients were pros…
OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to compare the expression of CD44 in endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) of women with and without endometriosis and to evaluate the role of CD44 in the adherence of ESCs to peritoneal mesothelial cells (PMC…
ObjectivesTo investigate the number of leiomyoma patients-exposed to bisphenol A (BPA) and to observe whether the serum concentration of BPA is related to leiomyoma growth.MethodsA total of 158 patients were recruited for this study. Leiomy…
AIM: Hormones and inflammation have been implicated in the pathological process of endometriosis; therefore, we investigated the combined effects of 17β-estradiol (E2) and peritoneal fluid obtained from patients with endometriosis (ePF) or …
PurposeChemokines have been implicated in the pathological process of endometriosis. We compared the effects of peritoneal fluid obtained from patients with endometriosis (ePF) and controls without endometriosis (cPF) on the release of mono…
ObjectiveTo report a successful treatment of symptomatic adenomyosis using magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery (MRgFUS).DesignCase study.SettingGeneral hospital.Patient(s)A 47-year-old premenopausal woman with focal symptom…
Immunological abnormalities of cell-mediated and humoral immunity might be associated with the pathogenesis of endometriosis. This study has examined the effects of peritoneal fluid obtained from patients with endometriosis (ePF) on the phe…
BACKGROUND: An increase in the level of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production has been reported in the peritoneal fluid (PF) of endometriosis patients. This suggests that changes in the vascular permeability and angiogene…
BACKGROUND: The increased production of pro-inflammatory chemoattractant cytokines for neutrophils in endometriosis suggests that changes in the immune system play an important role in the pathophysiology of endometriosis. The effects of pl…
PurposeOur objective was to explain a relationship between concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and nitric oxide (NO) in follicular fluid, oocyte quality, and outcomes of in vitro fertilization--embryo transfer (IVF-ET)…
