We present a case of hemorrhagic shock occurred during dienogest therapy for uterine adenomyosis which necessitated an emergency hysterectomy. The patient was a 45-year-old woman with adenomyosis. Magnetic resonance imaging showed type I ad…
Administration of Dienogest prior to hysteroscopic polypectomy is empirically performed, but the physiological effects of Dienogest on endometrial polyps are unclear. We aimed to investigate the effects of Dienogest on the proliferation and…
When the presence of endometriotic lesions are not evident by hematoxylin and eosin staining, CD10 is used to highlight and confirm the presence of endometriotic stroma. However, CD10 is not specific only to the endometrial stroma but is al…
Abstract Endometriosis exerts detrimental effects on ovarian physiology and compromises follicular health. Granulosa cells of endometriosis patients are characterized by increased apoptosis, as well as high oxidative stress. Among several p…
Non-hormonal therapeutic strategies for endometriosis are needed. The aim of this study was to characterize the effects of prostaglandin (PG)E2 receptor inhibitors to explore their potential as novel therapeutic strategies for endometriosis…
Endometriosis exerts detrimental effects on ovarian physiology and compromises follicular health. Granulosa cells from patients with endometriosis are characterized by increased apoptosis, as well as high oxidative stress. Endoplasmic retic…
AIM: This study aimed to describe the clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and operative or medical management of inguinal endometriosis. METHODS: In this study, we retrospectively reviewed 20 cases of inguinal endometriosis in our…
BACKGROUND: The recurrence rate after unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (USO) for unilateral endometrioma has not been reported. We evaluated the rate of and risk factors for endometrioma recurrence after USO. METHODS: In this retrospective …
CONTEXT: The ovarian reserve is reduced in patients with endometriosis. We hypothesize that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) Akt-Forkhead box O (Foxo3) pathway is involv…
Abstract Amenorrhea and osteoporosis are strongly associated in female athletes. Amenorrheic women show lower serum levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) than eumenorrheic women. BDNF is known to regulate bone tissue developmen…
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…
The association between cervical conization and subsequent development of endometriosis is uncertain. The objective of this study was to estimate the incidence rate of ovarian endometrioma after cervical conization and to determine factors …
OBJECTIVES: To characterize peritoneal dendritic cells (DCs) in endometriosis and to clarify their role in its etiology. DESIGN: Experimental. SETTING: University hospital. PATIENT(S): Sixty-three women (35 patients with endometriosis an…
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…
