OBJECTIVES: The aim of our study is to investigate the percentage of ovarian cancer (OC) patients with concomitant endometriosis and its distribution across histological subtypes, and to assess whether the presence of endometriosis influenc…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis impairs multiple dimensions of women's lives. Ovarian endometrioma and deep endometriosis present distinct clinical profiles. The dietary pattern has shown controversial data both for pain control and in the effect…

Minimally invasive surgery was introduced to minimize some of the issues associated with open surgery. Its benefits include fewer complications, less pain and blood loss, shorter hospital stays, quicker recovery, and less noticeable scars. …

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition that impacts on women's health, reducing their quality of life. Ovarian endometriosis (OE) and deep endometriosis (DE) are the primary manifestations. While surgical interventio…

While endometriosis is a common gynecologic disease associated with infertility, the psychosocial impact of endometriosis has not been evaluated against various quality of life (QoL) instruments and compared with other chronic illnesses. We…

The diagnosis of endometriosis by laparoscopy is delayed until advanced stages. In recent years, microRNAs have emerged as novel biomarkers for different diseases. These molecules are small non-coding RNA sequences involved in the regulatio…

BACKGROUND: the association between ovarian endometriosis (OE) and endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC) is extensively documented, and misfunction of the immune system might be involved. The primary objective of this study was to …

Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and antral follicular count (AFC) decrease in women with ovarian endometrioma (OMA) and in vitro fertilization (IVF). In addition, these parameters drop even further when women with OMA undergo surgery. In this …

Adenomyosis has been associated with better survival outcomes in women with endometrial cancer. However, although the endometrial cancer patients' risk stratification has been revolutionized by molecular findings, the impact of the molecula…

The main objective was to analyze the rate of bilateral sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection in endometrial cancer using indocyanine green (ICG) as a unique tracer compared to Technetium99 + ICG. As secondary objectives, we analyzed the drai…

Our aim was to study the advantages, complications and obstetrical outcomes of laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) compared with abdominal myomectomy (AM). We conducted a retrospective cohort study at La Paz University Hospital that included LMs a…

Adequate surgical management of malignant endometriosis remains a clinical challenge in gynecology. Age, sonography variables, and tumor biomarkers have been reported as candidates in the clinical decision. This study aims were to analyze t…

BackgroundThe aim of the present study was to demonstrate that transvaginal specimen extraction is a feasible and safe approach in colorectal resection for deep endometriosis (DE) and to assess the risk factors for postoperative complicatio…

The quality of life (QoL) of women who have been surgically treated for endometriosis may be severely impaired. Therefore, QoL can be a determining factor in the recovery of these patients. The aims of this study were to evaluate if the QoL…
