Background and Objectives: Serum albumin is a widely available and inexpensive biomarker that reflects nutritional status and physiological reserve. Hypoalbuminemia has been linked to poor postoperative outcomes in surgical oncology; howeve…

OBJECTIVE: This preliminary study sought to provide initial insights into lead concentrations within the follicular fluid of infertile patients with and without endometriosis, tentatively observing any potential links between lead presence …

Objective.Ovarian endometriosis, or endometriomas, is a common manifestation and is typically treated via laparoscopic cystectomy.However, this method may compromise ovarian function.Ablation, involving thermal destruction of endometriosis …

Iatrogenic urinary tract injury is a known complication of pelvic surgery, most commonly occurring during gynecological procedures. The bladder and ureters are particularly vulnerable due to their close anatomical proximity to the uterus. U…

Introduction: Actinomyces are commensal bacteria that colonize various sites in the human body. Under certain predisposing conditions, they can proliferate and cause granulomatous inflammation in different tissues. Pelvic actinomycosis is a…

Background: The tumor microenvironment offers a new perspective in gynecologic oncology. In ovarian cancer, numerous preclinical studies, especially organoid models, have highlighted cellular, immune, and biochemical mechanisms. Beyond thes…

Ovarian cancer (OC) remains a significant health challenge globally, with high mortality rates despite advancements in treatment. Emerging research suggests a potential link between OC development and genital dysbiosis, implicating alterati…

Background and Objectives: An extracellular vesicle is part of a class of submicron particles derived from cells, mediating cellular crosstalk through microRNA (miRNA). MiRNA is a group of RNA molecules, each of which consists of 15-22 nucl…

Endometrial cancer is the most incident gynecological cancer. Lymph node dissemination is one of the most important factors for the patient's prognosis. Pelvic lymph nodes are the primary site of extra-uterine dissemination in endometrial c…

Background and Objectives: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent, inflammatory, gynecological disorder represented by the migration of endometrial tissue outside the uterus. It can manifest through gynecological and gastrointestinal (GI) s…

ObjectiveThe surgical management of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) represents an unclear option compared to medical therapy, and it is necessary to deepen the role of minimally invasive surgery, represented by laparoscopic ovarian drillin…

Despite laparoscopy being a standardized option to diagnose pelvic endometriotic implants, non-invasive biomarkers are necessary to avoid the discomfort of invasive procedures. Recent evidence suggests a potential role of microRNAs (miRNAs)…

Background and Objectives: Meigs syndrome is represented by a benign adnexal tumor, ascites, and hydrothorax. Even though the ovarian mass is often characterized by a fibroma-like origin, cancer antigen-125 (CA-125) serum levels could be el…

Background and objectives: Total hysterectomy is one of the most common gynecologic surgical procedures and it is mainly performed for benign pathologies. The introduction of robotic single-site surgery (RSS) as an acceptable alternative to…

Background and Objectives: The most common sites of implantation of endometriotic tissue are the ovaries. Endometriomas are present in most cases of endometriosis (up to 45%). Although laparoscopic cystectomy is the standard of care in endo…

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic excision of endometrioma and subsequent hemostasis have detrimental effects on ovarian reserve. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate which hemostatic approach after stripping cystectomy shows less damage on ovarian reserve. SE…
