Endometriosis and autoimmune diseases share a hyper-inflammatory state that might negatively impact the embryo-endometrium crosstalk. Inflammatory and immune deregulatory mechanisms have been shown to impair both endometrial receptivity and…
Minimally invasive surgery emerged in the 1980s as a safe and effective technique which requires smaller incisions and, usually, a shorter hospital stay compared to traditional surgery. Since then, minimally invasive surgery has expanded in…
Ovarian endometriosis may increase the risk of malignancy. Several studies have suggested atypical endometriosis as the direct precursor of endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer. We performed an advanced, systematic search of the online m…
BACKGROUND: Infertile women carrying ovarian endometriomas can be managed either with surgery or by in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The aim of this study was to compare ovarian responsiveness to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in assiste…
The surgical management of endometrioma is still a matter of debate. Cystectomy, which is recognized as the standard technique, seems to be associated with a potential reduction in the ovarian reserve due to the inadvertent removal and ther…

Abstract Study question To evaluate whether the presence of concomitant autoimmunity in endometriosis patients may affect In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)/Intracytoplasmic Injection (ICSI) outcomes. Summary answer In ‘normo-responders’ patients…
The management of endometriosis-related infertility is still a challenging issue. Women can be managed with either surgery or in vitro fertilization (IVF). The decision is tailored to the patients considering pros and cons of both approache…
Pathogenesis of endometriosis is still unclear and a role of both innate and adaptive immune system has been postulated. Some recent findings have revealed an increased risk to have concomitant autoimmune disease in women with endometriosis…
The correlation between endometriosis and adverse obstetric outcomes is still under debate. A defective deep placentation has been proposed as potential pathogenic mechanisms. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of endometrios…
BACKGROUND: Data about endometrioma ablation using energies with little thermal spread reported good results in terms of ovarian reserve and postoperative pregnancy rates. The aim of the present study was to assess the impact of one step CO…
Abstract Study question To investigate differences in In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)/Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) outcomes between endometriosis women who do or don’t have a concomitant autoimmune disease. Summary answer Despite a …
INTRODUCTION: Bowel endometriosis can cause debilitating symptoms. Surgical colorectal resection is often required for symptomatic relief. Aim of our study was to evaluate quality of life over a one-year follow-up period in patients submitt…
STUDY QUESTION: Does CO2 laser vaporization offer better results in treating endometrioma in terms of ovarian reserve preservation compared to traditional cystectomy? SUMMARY ANSWER: Assessing both antral follicle count (AFC) and serum anti…
BACKGROUND: The advent of flexible CO2 laser fiber to gynecology arena might represent a turning point in the use of laser energy on a large-scale basis in gynecological surgery. However, there might be some concerns regarding the degree of…
A 50-year-old woman on continuous oral estroprogestin therapy and with a history of endometriosis presented with gross hematuria and right reno-ureteral colic pain. Fifteen years before she had undergone total nephrectomy for loss of functi…
Objective: To analyze the ovarian reserve via measurement of follicular density and AMH in endometriosis patients participating to a clinical program of cortical ovarian cryopreservation. Design: Retrospective analysis of serum AMH levels a…
Background In recent years, excisional surgery has been questioned as an ideal surgical approach for endometriomas because it is associated with potential removal of healthy ovarian tissue and loss of ovarian follicles with subsequent reduc…
