AIM: Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disorder that causes dysmenorrhea, hypermenorrhea and metrorrhagia. Previously, we reported that 24 weeks of dienogest treatment is highly effective for pain in symptomatic adenomyosis. Up to prese…
AIM: To determine the efficacious treatment for infertile couples, we assessed the impact of infertility factors including endometriosis on assisted reproductive technology (ART) and non-ART treatment, and the effect of age in infertility t…
AIM: Our objective was to determine the preoperative factors associated with difficulty in total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH). METHODS: This retrospective clinical study included 157 patients who underwent TLH for leiomyoma or adenomyosi…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis has been shown to be associated with second- to third-trimester pregnancy complications such as preterm birth and placenta previa, but the evidence is inconsistent. We hypothesized that endometriosis severity might…
OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence rate of subsequent development of ovarian cancer after excision of endometrioma. DESIGN: Retrospective cross-sectional study. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): A total of 485 women with endo…
CONTEXT: Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent, chronic inflammatory disease. Recent studies have shown that vitamin D (VD) is an effective modulator of the immune system and plays an important role in controlling many inflammatory disease…
PROBLEM: Neutrophils are known to be accumulated in endometriosis; however, direct evidence of the impact of neutrophils in the development of endometriosis was lacking. To clarify the importance of neutrophils, we examined the effect of ne…
It has been widely accepted that the age of women plays a fundamental role in fecundity, and age-related fertility decline has one of the most significant and detrimental effects on the success rate of infertility treatment. Therefore, trea…
PROBLEM: Resistance to apoptosis, together with inflammatory and invasive activity, contributes to the pathogenesis of endometriosis; therefore, approaches that can safely enhance apoptosis in endometriotic tissue are highly sought after as…
STUDY OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the frequency of pneumothorax after laparoscopic surgery and to identify possible correlations to endometriosis. DESIGN: Retrospective review. SETTING: Tokyo University Hospital between 2006 and 2013. PATIEN…
OBJECTIVE: To identify the characteristics of cases and fibroids that will indicate which patients should undergo myomectomy to improve fertility. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We recruited patients (n=101) who had undergone myomectomy to improve…
AIM: The aim of this study was to identify factors that can predict clinical course among patients hospitalized with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). METHODS: Ninety-three patients who needed hospitalization with a diagnosis of PID were …
AIM: Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) plays a role in regulation of inflammation. The role of SIRT1 in endometriosis remains unknown. We here addressed the anti-inflammatory effects of SIRT1 on endometriosi…
PURPOSE: This study aimed to maximize the chance of pregnancy and provide an optimal protocol for infertile female patients of advanced reproductive age as an alternative to in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICS…
