STUDY OBJECTIVE: To assess the usefulness of narrowband imaging (NBI) to detect additional areas of endometriosis not identified by standard white light in patients undergoing laparoscopy for the investigation of pelvic pain. DESIGN: A pro…
BACKGROUND: Clinician and patient factors impact on the management of chronic pelvic pain (CPP) with medical, surgical or combined approaches possible, although none have proven superior. AIMS: To understand the characteristics of women of…
Background and aims Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) impacts significantly on the lives of women. Negative coping responses such as pain catastrophizing are thought to be significant in predicting both pain severity and outcome. The combined effec…
BACKGROUND: To establish whether the ultrasound findings of minimal endometriosis are confirmed at laparoscopy and that a correlation can be established as to the anatomical sites in this mild form of the disease. AIMS: Patients with pain a…
STUDY QUESTION: Can the presence of endometrial nerve fibres be used as a diagnostic test for endometriosis in women with pelvic pain? SUMMARY ANSWER: Endometrial fine nerve fibres were seen in the endometrium of women both with and without…
BACKGROUND: Surgical treatment of deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) is complex, and preoperative diagnosis benefits both surgeon and patient. Studies in expert centres have reported high accuracy for transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) diagn…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To assess the outcome of aggressive but conservative laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of severe endometriosis involving the rectum. DESIGN: Retrospective study (Canadian Task Force classification III). SETTING: Endos…
Objective To highlight the necessity of adequately testing rectosigmoid integrity after resection of infiltrating endometriosis. Subject A 25‐year‐old woman with a past history of ablative treatment for endometriosis, symptoms suggestive of…
An open prospective observational study was performed, aiming to measure symptom severity following operative gynaecological laparoscopy and explore any associated factors. Women having concomitant procedures were excluded. Each woman had s…
Summary: The objective of this study was to study the effect of replacing of most abdominal hysterectomies with the laparovaginal technique. Three gynaecologists trained in advanced operative laparoscopy performed 160 laparovaginal, open an…
Fifteen patients with dysmenorrhoea and menorrhagia refractory to medical treatment were referred for surgical treatment. Pre-operative diagnosis of adenomyosis was suggested by vaginal ultrasound in 13 patients and was confirmed pre-operat…
