Demetra Application is a holistic integrated and scalable bioinformatics web‑based tool designed to assist medical experts and researchers in the process of diagnosing endometriosis. The application identifies the most prominent gene varian…

Endometriosis is a pathological condition extensively studied, but its pathogenesis is not completely understood, since its pathophysiology stems from a broad spectrum of environmental influences and genetic factors. Moreover, the nature of…

Endometriosis is a pathological condition which has been extensively studied, since its pathophysiology stems from a broad spectrum of environmental influences and genetic factors. Familial studies aim at defining inheritance trends, while …

The purpose of the present study was two‑fold: First to review the epidemiological aspects of the experience on the surgical outcomes via laparotomy or laparoscopy, as regards endometriosis from two different academic institutions and, seco…

Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) is a tyrosine kinase receptor, which exerts its activity by binding to VEGF, a major mediator of angiogenesis. Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases in women of…

Introduction: We aimed to describe and review the epidemiological aspect of the disease pattern of a series of perimenopausal and postmenopausal women with a histology confirmation of endometriosis. Material and Methods: We retrospectively …

The coexistence of endometrioma with dermoid cyst of the ovaries is an unusual entity, although they are both common and benign gynecological tumors. The present study aimed to investigate the association between ovarian dermoid cyst (terat…

Endometriosis is a complex gynecological disorder, affecting up to 10% of women of childbearing age, characterized by the presence of functional endometrial tissue at ectopic positions generally within the peritoneum. It is a heritable cond…

Endometriosis is an enigmatic condition with an unknown etiology and a poorly understood pathogenesis. It is considered to appear from the interplay of many genetic and environmental factors, affecting up to 10% of women and represents a ma…

We retrospectively analyzed clinicopathological data in two different countries over the past years on the association between ovarian endometriosis and ovarian carcinoma. Medical and pathological reports were evaluated from 1,000 patients …

Endometriosis is an enigmatic condition with an unknown etiology and poorly understood pathogenesis and women with endometriosis represent a high-risk population group for a large category of chronic conditions. The study focused on a 67-ye…

fertilization (IVF) in the management of endometriosis-associated infertility. Endometriosis is a medical condition affecting one tenth of women in their fertile years, and accounts for up to 50% of infertile women. Thus, such high prevalen…

Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases affecting up to 10% of the female population of childbearing age and a major cause of pain and infertility. It is influenced by multiple genetic, epigenetic and environmental fa…

The purpose of this study was two-fold, first to investigate the association between endometriosis and the risk of benign gynecologic tumors and, secondly, to evaluate the distribution of endometrioma and ovarian cysts in women with endomet…

OBJECTIVE(S): The purpose of the study was to review patients' characteristics and the location of extrapelvic endometriosis. STUDY DESIGN: Out of 1000 women with endometriosis during a 20year period, we found 200 cases with extra pelvic e…

The aim of this study was to investigate whether five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), associated with endometriosis, may confer new insight towards a genotype‑phenotype association with endometriosis. We studied a three-generation f…

Endometriosis is a benign gynecologic disorder, affecting up to 10% of women, characterized by the presence of functional endometrial tissue at ectopic positions generally within the peritoneum. It is a heritable condition influenced by mul…

Purpose To reconsider the implantation and delivery rates which occurred six years later in women with endometriosis from the Yale IVF Programme. Methods Five hundred and ninety-seven consecutive IVF and ICSI treatment cycles were analyzed …
