The efficiency of medical therapy as a unique treatment for endometrioma has not been demonstrated. Operative laparoscopic management is the 'gold standard' for surgical treatment, and there are no indications to prescribe medical treatment…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether specific types of pelvic pain are correlated with the anatomic locations of deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). DESIGN: Retrospective data analysis. SETTING: University tertiary referral center. PAT…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To determine whether routine clinical examination is sufficient for the diagnosis and establishing the location of deeply infiltrating endometriosis (DIE). DESIGN: Retrospective analysis (Canadian Task Force classification…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To analyze the risk of postoperative adhesions in women who undergo laparoscopic surgical management of deep endometriosis infiltrating the uterosacral ligaments (USL). DESIGN: Retrospective analysis (Canadian Task Force c…
The protein kinase C (PKC) isoenzyme expression pattern in human uterine leiomyoma was compared with that obtained in homologous myometrium distal from the tumor. The six PKC isoforms (PKCalpha, PKCbeta1, PKCbeta2, PKCdelta, PKCepsilon and …
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether deeply infiltrating endometriosis occurs with equal frequency between left and right uterosacral ligaments. DESIGN: Retrospective analysis of consecutive cases. SETTING: Department of gynaecological surge…
BACKGROUND: Two aims: 1) To assess the results of laparoscopically assisted vaginal management of deep endometriosis infiltrating the rectovaginal septum (RVS); 2) to pinpoint the differences between this procedure and that used for deep en…

UNLABELLED: Deep pelvic endometriosis may lead to severe pain, the treatment of which may require complete surgical resection of lesions. Digestive infiltration is a difficult therapeutic problem. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult and dig…
Partial cystectomy is in the great majority of the cases the treatment of choice for patients with bladder endometriosis. The aim is to assess the methods, indications and results of operative laparoscopy for patients presenting with bladde…
The distributions of the mRNAs for estrogen receptors (ERalpha and ERbeta) and their binding properties in myometria of pregnant and nonpregnant women and in leiomyoma were studied. RT-PCR analysis indicated that the term pregnancy myometri…
BackgroundTo assess the methods, indications and results of operative laparoscopy for patients presenting with bladder endometriosis.MethodsDescriptive retrospective study. All the patients presenting with bladder endometriosis infiltrating…
STUDY OBJECTIVE: To describe and assess the efficacy of laparoscopic surgical treatment for patients with pain and deep endometriosis located on the uterosacral ligaments. DESIGN: Retrospective analysis (Canadian Task Force classification …
The objective of this work was to assess the advantages and the role of rectal endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) when establishing evidence of infiltration of the rectal wall in patients with proven deep pelvic endometriosis. To this end we …
The objective of this work was to assess the efficacy of laparoscopic surgical resection of the uterosacral ligament(s) (USL) in patients with pelvic pain associated with suspected infiltration of these ligaments by retroperitoneal endometr…
OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study is to assess the efficiency of laparoscopic surgical treatment of pain for patients presenting deep endometriosis located on the uterosacral ligaments. STUDY DESIGN: We analysed a continuous series of 36 p…
The goal of this study was to assess the efficiency of laparoscopic surgical treatment of pain for patients presenting deep endometriosis located on the uterosacral ligaments. To this end we analysed a continuous series of 21 patients treat…
According to whether uterine artery treatment takes place vaginally or laparoscopically, laparoscopy for hysterectomy can be considered according to two modalities: laparoscopically assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH) and total laparoscopi…
The standard technique for total laparoscopic hysterectomy is characterised by two essential points. The first is that all instruments are reusable and the second is that hemostasis is ensured by bipolar coagulation. It is a safe technique …
