Uterine cystic lesions are commonly encountered in clinical practice, but serosal cysts, such as uterine serous cystadenomas, are exceedingly rare. This case report highlights the rare occurrence of a large uterine serous cystadenoma, initi…

Uterine fibroid is one of the most common benign uterine diseases, affecting up to 70-80% of females of reproductive age. Whilst abdominal myomectomy has traditionally been a major uterine-sparing surgical intervention for its management, t…

Background and objectivesMinimizing intraoperative bleeding is pivotal in myomectomy, and blockage of uterine arteries has been reported as an effective approach. We developed a novel technique to temporary occlude bilateral uterine arterie…

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the perioperative and long-term outcomes of surgical management of patients with endometriosis at a community hospital in a low socioeconomic district. METHODS: A total of 39 patients underwent surgica…

Background and objectiveWhen the uterus is or more than 18 to 20 weeks in size, laparotomy but not minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is commonly performed for hysterectomy. It is, however, acknowledged that MIS carries numerous benefits to p…

Traditional treatment strategies for recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and recurrent implantation failure (RIF) often result in limited success, placing significant emotional and financial burdens on couples. However, novel approaches such as …

Conventional sperm selection based on motility and morphology fails to provide detailed information on sperm functional and molecular status. Magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) protocol aims to optimize this process by selecting apoptot…

Background: The first case of inguinal endometriosis was described by Cullen. Endometriosis in the round ligament could be in the pelvic or inguinal area and is a rare disease occurring in 0.6% of women. Women with inguinal endometriosis ha…

ObjectiveTo preserve human ovarian tissue structure and improve follicular growth and survival during in-situ culture, various biomaterials are used. In this study we aimed to compare agar as a cultivation substrate with matrigel-coated ins…

An appropriate connection of the cells in the ovary follicles is vital for a healthy ovule maturation and fertilization, and also for endometrium preparation for implantation that can cause endometriosis. Cellular communication within the f…

Different factors, such as basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and kit ligand (KL), are used in ovarian cortical culture to promote activation of primordial follicles. In the present study, the effects of bFGF and KL, alone and in combina…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis, a common chronic inflammatory disorder, is defined by the atypical growth of endometrium- like tissue outside of the uterus. Secretory phospholipase A2 group IIa (sPLA2-IIa) and fatty acid binding protein4 (FABP4)…

BackgroundParaoxonase-3 (PON3), as a high density lipoprotein (HDL)-associated lactonase, is capable of preventing the oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL). PON3 activity in follicular fluid (FF) is three times more than …

Endometriosis usually occurs in the pelvis but can be found nearly anywhere in the body. Bowel involvement in endometriosis is uncommon and it is estimated to be present in 3.7% to 35% of women with endometriosis. It can rarely result in in…

BACKGROUND: To compare efficacy of simvastatin with GnRHa (Decapeptyl 3.75 mg) on endometriosis-related pains following surgery for endometriosis. MATERIAL/METHODS: Sixty women with pelvic endometriosis, after laparoscopic diagnosis and co…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common chronic inflammation which leads to infertility and chronic pelvic pain in affected women. Secretory phospholipase A2 type IIa (sPLA2IIa) is an acute phase reactant that is markedly increased in inflamm…

OBJECTIVE: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of cytology smears in distinguishing between tube and non-tube structures. METHODS: One hundred cytology smears of fallopian tube and non-tube structures (vessels, round and ovarian ligaments…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a common chronic inflammation causing major problems including infertility. The role of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids as their potential anti-inflammatory effects in endometriosis needs to be further explored.…
