BACKGROUND: The Endometrioid Borderline ovarian tumor (EBOT) is the third most common histological subtype of borderline ovarian tumors. Due to the low incidence of disease, literature is scanty about the prognosis and management of this en…
AIM: To analyse the relationship between reproductive and menstrual factors and different stages of pelvic endometriosis. METHODS: Between 1987 and 1990 a case-control study of risk factors for pelvic endometriosis was conducted. Cases comp…
The relation between contraceptive methods and risk of pelvic endometriosis has been analyzed in a case-control study. Cases were 376 women with laparoscopically or laparotomically confirmed pelvic endometriosis admitted to a network of Obs…
ObjectiveTo evaluate the changes of pain symptoms induced by buserelin acetate, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist, in a group of patients with endometriosis.DesignThirty-five infertile patients with one or more of the following sympt…
ObjectiveWe performed a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of intranasal 400 micrograms buserelin three times daily for 6 months versus expectant management in the treatment of infertile women with pelvic endometriosis stage…
The easy access to the pelvis via laparoscopy has led to an appreciable increase in the diagnosis of endometriosis in women with infertility or chronic pelvic pain. This could suggest a rising incidence of the disease but is probably largel…
In the period 1988-1990 this prospective study of 33 women with moderate or severe endometriosis who underwent laparoscopy for infertility and/or chronic pelvic pain, was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of aspirating endometriotic cysts …
Seventy-five consecutive patients undergoing laparoscopy for chronic pelvic pain and/or infertility were studied to test whether beta-endorphin concentrations in peripheral mononuclear cells differed according to the presence or absence of …
We evaluated the prevalence and severity of dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain, and deep dyspareunia and their relation to disease stage and site in 124 infertile women with endometriosis and 67 infertile women with normal findings. Seventy-eight en…
A prospective study analyzed the prevalence and severity of dysmenorrhea, intermenstrual pain and deep dyspareunia in relation to morphologic features of peritoneal disease in 73 consecutive women with endometriosis but no associated pelvic…
The visual diagnosis of endometrioma at laparotomy in 245 women operated on for ovarian cysts demonstrated a sensitivity of 97%, specificity of 95%, positive and negative predictive value of 98% and 94%, respectively, and overall accuracy o…
We studied endometrial structure and ultrastructure in serial biopsy specimens from patients with endometriosis treated with danazol (N = 19) or intranasal buserelin (N = 13) for 6 months. Biopsies were performed before and at 3 and 6 month…
The easy access to the pelvis of infertile women by laparoscopy favours early diagnosis of endometriosis in an increasing number of subjects with minimal and mild disease. These initial forms have been associated with and considered as the …
